boxings biggest right hand........

Louis put Braddock's teeth through his gumshield , into his lips, with one right hand.

Louis broke Paulino's gold false teeth ,and left them sprinkled on the canvas, and Paulino out for the first, and only time, with one right hand .

 

There's already a term for describing the best right-hand. The term is - wait for it - 'the best right-hand'. Biggest equals hardest, most powerful. That is the universal term for it.

 

Indeed, & in terms of raw power in the right hand, Lennox Lewis may take the cake.

 

Between Baer and Shavers, imo.

 

guys? or a guy? it prove nothing, louis did not have a great chin and he took every shot from baer... his %ko was not incredible. foreman and shavers were harder puncher

 

the more i watch his fights (and ****, he had some GREAT fights), the more i lean towards a top 10 position for him. ****, that may be selling him short. how many guys took a CLEAN right hand from lewis and stay awake long enough to make it out of the round. not just journeymen like rahman but guys with proven beards like ruddock and tyson.

 

Louis did not have a great chin? How many times prior to his tragic comeback did Louis get knocked out? And how many tremendous right hands did it take to put him out of it? Also At 37 he almost went the full 10 with a a guy who went to have, was it the 2nd highest ko percentage of all time? He fought some big punchers ontop of Rocky Marciano and Max Schmeling there was Big Maxie Baer, gargantuan Buddy Baer, Two Ton Tony Galento, Lou Nova, Jersey Joe Walcott - Louis' chin was as sound as your average heavyweights really

I think the reason George Foreman didn't get the instant lights out one punch knock outs of say joe Louis was just because of his ridiculous imprecise technique that flailing arcing bludgeoning punching rather than the pinpoint accurate textbook shots that Louis put people to sleep with - but in terms of pure hitting strength Foreman has to be right up there

 

max schmeling is not even top 30 hardest puncher of all time(even a bunch of fat like galento was harder puncher than him). and joe louis was a great fighter but the chin was not his best attribute, he had average chin, not more. louis avoided the best shots from galento or baer with his great defense and skill. it was not really his chin. and with all my respects for the great brown bomber but i think that a prime foreman who fought frazier and norton would ko him in 4 rounds. foreman did prove that he had iron chin early, george could be ko when he was tired. but he would take bombs early. louis was too static to avoid foreman early, and george did cut pretty well the ring, styles make fights..

about the power of foreman... well dempsey and louis himself in 1974 said that george was the strongest fighter and the hardest puncher they ever saw(and they saw liston,shavers, baer,,marciano...)

 

Tyson took a lot of clean bombs from Lewis on the chin throughout the beatdown, & had been gassed since round 2. So to say he was stopped by the first clean right hand would be nonsense; Lewis brutally smashed several kitchen sinks over the shot, exhausted zombie of Tyson.

However, this doesn't detract from Lennox's incredible raw power in the slightest, even that walking corpse he fought had a concrete chin.

 

yes, in my opinion mugabi was the hardest puncher ever pfp, this boy was really A BEAST

 

He didn't hit as hard as Julian Jackson IMO.

 

Too much jibber jabber

Its Thomas Hearns. Simple as...

 

i just can't go with it. i put jackson above him, even at 154 where i think tommy hit his true peak. he's up there, probably in the top 10 but i just don't see him at the top

 

has anybody else seen the right hook that randy turpin ko'd luc van dam with.it nearly bent him double over the ropes.
turpins pet punch was named alakazam and this is a fine example of it.

 

In P4P terms i think it's Tommy Hearns.
