George Foreman, the "anywhere punch". Rumoured that when he threw it, whatever it hit, it broke. Too bad it didn't land on ali in africa!!

Jones rooster punch is when he puts both hands behind his back leaving himself completely exposed and when the opponent comes near you he steps to the side and throws a quick hook. This punch is a fraud and the exact reason why some hate Jones. He KO Glen Kelley with this move. This is not a great move. All it says is that you are fighting a inferior opponent. No decent fighter would get hit by this punch, let alone be KO

AND THEY GOT THE NERVE TO SAY I AINT FIGHT NOBODY MAN I JUST MAKE THEM LOOK LIKE NOBODY!!!! haha yes but maybe mr jones was the only one that could do this because of his excellent skill...hmmm? it may be that its not a case of an inferior opponent but the natural talent that he possesed allowing him to pull off such a creative move. but everyone has their opinions :rolleyes:

wrong
u discribed it as a step to the side then left hook
u used glen kelly as an example
with glen he didnt step to da side first
he hit him with a STRAIT RIGHT then moved

and his rooster punch isnt when his hands are behind his back
its when he puts them to his side
like he did with Toney when he knocked him down

and that my friend is whats known as being....
SCHOOOLLEDDDDDDDDD

I am a Jones fan and one of the few who take up for him. I still think he will go down as the most underated fighters of all time. Alot of people will always remember how it ended for him and say that is the real Jones, but I think that he was washed up when Tarver beat him. The guy had tremendous skill and he beat some great fighters but in between those big fights he had long stretches of fighting cupcakes and if you saw that fight then you would know what I mean. The punch wasnt even that hard. He was so slow and didnt belong in the ring with Jones

you are completely wrong clown. That wasnt the rooster punch that he did with Toney. He just bent down and Toney tried to mock him and he bent down with him and then Jones swung. That was just a dumb move by Toney who underestimated Jones speed. Jones has said many times that the Kelley punch was the rooster move because if you have your hands behind your back you look like a rooster. CLOWN. I didnt say it was a left hook. I said it was a quick hook. I know it was a right hand, but it was a hook. I have the fight on tape. So dont talk what you dont know

no he did the shake n bake to Toney, and Toney did it back and then got caught with a left hook. i just watched it again... JT's signature move is the shoulder roll, by the way

yea he did fight a lot of easys but then again THEY MUSTA FORGOT! but seriously he is in there with ali, frazier, foreman and them and those last two fights yeah he was washed up he was older he didnt have the same footwork andcouldnt move around the ring as much as he used to be a able to but thats what happens as you age, maybe they should make a drug like viagra but instead it increases your speed and footwork... anythingspossble

ive seen ifghters do this b4

what fights did he do it in?

almost every fight amigo...he did it in both the mab and jmm fights. you wouldn't notice it unless you're really look at pac before the start of any round and he doesn't do that in every round tho.

it's a custom for a fighter where manny comes from to do this at least once in a fight to protect him and his opponent for any harm during the fight!

well ive seen lots of fighters do it

The one thing that I noticed is when the ref finishes talking and asks the fighters to touch gloves, Pac always touches with his goves on top. Always. :D Must be an omen.
