Any other fighters use this punch in the same way, leaping off the ground without setting it up? Seen SRR use it in combinations. Can fighters with lesser reflexes get away with it? (i.e. is it a technique thing or did Jones get away with it because he was so fast. Great example, Joe Frazier (RIP) landed perfectly on Ali in FOTC. What I'm saying is, is it a habit unique to Jones that he could deliver it so well and consistently without being caught because of reflexes (like Robinsons's tendency to sometimes bend at the waist and not get hit) or could other fighters do it as well as him, if so who?

Obviously speed is required, but Jones entire offense was mostly lead power shots. Whether the lefthook or straight righthand Jones would lead with power shots and rarely used his jab to set anything up, but more as a distance creator.
