    There's few punches that sound and look as violent as Lennox Lewis's uppercut on Vitali Klitschko in the 6th did. At 1:06 into the video:

    It was what he called his 'smash'; a hybrid hook/uppercut.

    I always thought the shot Hearnes landed on Cuevas was better than the Duran one. The long term effects were strikingly different... He ruined Cuevas, Duran had 1/2 a legendary career in him after that and many good wins.

    The most powerful punch by the shortest distance travelled.......:deal

    Clearly, Rocky Marciano's right hand to Jersey Joe Walcott's chin.

    I agree. He took punches from Ruddock, although he was never hit with this punch from Razor or he would have been staggered. This is a knockout punch for anyone.
