Why did Julian Jackson punch so hard?

[automaton89]

It's a mystery. Its nature + nurture. For 25,000 years people envisioned flying like a bird, but the Wright brothers got it. Why them? I guess someone has to be exceptional.

I can tell you why anyone else punches hard, including myself. Marciano has no size, no fast twitch, no reach. Amazing.

I think marciano had excellent rotation on his punches. But again, it's not like other fighters didnt rotate

Julian Jackson speaking to The Ring:

I really wanted to fight Sugar Ray Leonard. I wanted Leonard so bad. That was a dream of mine
because it would have been a game-changer. I thought it might happen after I beat Norris. But
Norris got the Leonard fight not long after beating Mugabi (another guy I wanted to fight).

It ticked me off so much that I went to the weigh-in for Leonard-Norris. After Leonard got off the
scale, I yelled, “You can’t call yourself a champion when you’re fighting a guy I beat!”
He calmly said, “I hear you, Julian, but you know what? You hit too hard.”

That's a great story and I don't think he was kidding.

Yes, I think Sugar Ray acted pretty cool.

As spectators we don’t always are aware of what’s going on in the ring.
Perhaps Mike McCallum provides the best evidence of how devastating Jackson was as a puncher.
McCallum, never stopped in 55 fights, said Jackson was without doubt the hardest puncher he ever faced.
And it was in a bout that seemed like an easy payday for McCallum, winning in two rounds …

Give me a ****ing break. Have you been to "Non Stop Boxing"?

No but I've seen you and OP make posts.

I would say you're his alt but there is no way he can figure out how to do that.
