Post the greatest straight right hands you've ever seen (I said straight). This is obviously inspired by the passing of Steward because many of his fighters had amazing straight right hands.
I'll start with a famous one :

its an overhand right (HearnsKODuran), diffrent from a right hook and even more diffrent from a straight right hand.
a hook is looped around the guard with the wlbow at fist level or lower, when throwing an overhand you raise your elbow and loop the punch over the lead hand of your opponent and drop the punch down on him. a straight right hand is just that, straight down the middle.
the best straight right hearns ever landed was probably the one that knocked shuler out cold or the one two that took out roldan, cuevas is up there too.
I've never seen that fight, but have always wondered...what was going on in that exact moment...why weren't his hands in place, or why wasn't he trying to move away from that telegraphed punch?
Was he rocked badly before ?????
No, Hearns set that up perfect with 2 jabs to the body, took Durans eyes away from the right hand.

Whats funny is the first thing to pop into my head was Hearns Duran.
Here is Mike Tyson's old trainer Kevin Rooney getting knocked out by one.
Alexis had one of the most beautiful straight right hands ever. I notice many in here are showing clips with guys landing overhand rights. Good pick

That wasn't really a stright right, it was more like a baseball hit, complete with windup. My choice is the Jimmy Thunder punch in that 11 sec (including the count) KO. Also Wladimir Klitschko against Calvin Brock.
That Hearns punch wasn't straight, it was a cross. Just saying.
