    In terms of how good I think the punch is by itself, I think his JAB was his best punch. He didn't use it that much because IMO, most fighters are used to fighting guys who open with jabs most of the time, it makes sense to open with your straight right hand if you are athletic enough to do it consistently. When he did jab though, it landed, he had GREAT extension on it, using almost every milimeter of his length possible. Some guys may be as long as mayweather arm wise, but it won't seem it because they don't get such great extension. He knew how to move his entire upper body with every punch to maximize reach.

    So the jab I think is his best punch, its done so well. His lead right is also great.

    All of his punches are pretty good though to be honest. The reason mayweather was so unhittable was because he was difficult to counter. He could open up with many different punches, and if you got used to him coming to you, he was great at using feints, and could sit back and counter punch himself.

    I just think JAB because I think its a punch that if you could give it to other fighters, they would become good boxers on that punch alone.

    Check hook is a made up word. Its a left hook period.

    1) Lead straight right .... hands down his best punch, lighting fast and often threw three or four times in row while circling.
    2) Check left hook when being pressured - thing of beauty
    3) his side step jab is almost a left cross - he hit Canelo countless times with it and frustrated the hell out of him.

    His donkey punch on Justin Bieber on their honeymoon was legendary.
