      Arguello is my honorable mention, but any right hand that puts Roberto freaking Duran out cold deserves it's spot at the top. Tommy Hearns all day.

        joe louis gets my pick

        hearns
        danny lopez
        arguello
        hamed had a huge right hand
        jackson
        mclellan

        and he's on a lesser tier
        but he's a gifted right handed puncher if i've ever seen one:

          for people picking Hearns for his straight right, you should rethink that statement.

          Hearns had a good straight right but not the best. Hearns big punch was actually more of a right hook. Often called a hearns 'right hand', because boxing critiques like to think that punch doesn't exist outside of a southpaw stance.

          Arguello on the other hand, had an incredible straight right, as did Earnie Shavers. Those are 2 debilitating straight right hands I can think of.

          That being said, Hearns straight was still upper echelon, just not the BEST, like I said.

            P4P I like Julian Jackson's right over anybody's.

                Not in terms of power or devastation but he's sneaky with it, very accurate too, both to body and head, counters well with it and can double,trible even quadruple it, its a great shot but i just cant put it on par with a Hearns, Jackson or a G man

                  I don't know what you call it but that right hand "thing" that Hearns KOd Duran with looked devastating to me and was best right hand I have ever seen.
