  • Punches with Names

    I saw the post about lethal punches. I thought I'd soften it a bit. (The whole slide into death thing, seemed a bit harsh.)

    Lets see if we can create a list of all the famous named punches. I got three but I will only offer one to get started.

    1. The Spinks Jinx -- Micahel Spinks -- straight right hand.

      Ali made it famous but he said he got it from Jack Johnson.

            The Shift Punch, aka The Solar Plexes Punch -- Ruby Rob Fitzsimmons -- right hand under the heart, stepping into the punch with a footwork shift from orthodox to south paw.

              I always thought Ruddock was a fool.

              He became ao enamoured of the smash he forgot his boxing ability. If he had then I think he would have beaten Tyson.

                "Mary Ann" Frank Moran's right cross.
                "Iron Mike " Dempsey's right.
                "Enery's Ammer" Henry Cooper's left hook.

                  Though Gavilan is famous for the punch it was Ceferino Garcia who first used it with any regularity.

                    It was Fitzsimmons left hand punch not his right.
