Louis spun both Buddy Baer’s head and his whole body 360 deg. Turned him into a human corkscrew. That was pretty cool. I love Louis’ left that virtually lifted 233 1/2 lbs of Tony Galento off the canvas and onto his back. Generically my favourite punch is probably the jab but variety is the spice of life - I’m not into just watching a jab primarily win a fight.
Also Cooney‘s left body shot to Ron Lyle perhaps? You know they’re special when you can almost feel themself yourself just in the viewing. In their rubber, Norton hit Ali an hellacious shot to the body, doubling Muhammad over - a singularly rare sight. Ali’s body was like steel so I suspect that same shot might’ve put most other fighters down or rendered them unable to continue or at least easy to finish off.
Prime Holmes jab..JMM lead left uppercut are 2 favorites. Love the mostly forgotten straight rt hand to the body. Would liked to have witnessed Fitz rt hand to the neck!
I have always favored the right hook that Jack Dempsey knocked Jack Johnson out with in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, in 1921, considering the difficulty for a right handed fighter to throw a good right hook! A spectacular punchy!
