    Not in my opinion. If a shot lands,, it lands an thats cause you got hit. Its not a lucky punch, its a very good punch a saving grace but to write things off as lucky is silly IMO

      it was not a lucky punch infact that shot was set up with a right hand, the man knew his opponent was squared up infront of him, (The southpaw Harris) so he did what any professional fighter would do, look to counter inbetween.
      No lucky punch here.

        I have to agree. If you want to say that sometimes an opportunity presents itself that you had not planned due to your opponent’s defense, fine. But I would not call any punch “lucky”.

          yeah if you pin your toes to the floor and let fly whilst not looking at the target.

              Uhhh, Tarver-Jones II.

              Antonio Tarver knew how many holes his laces went through in his shoes before he knew that Jones was unconscious on the floor.

                There is, but of course they are legitimate wins; you can't take much away from them as such, the onus is on the other fighter to not get hit.

                  There are. Fights have been ended with punches thrown when a fighter's eyes are closed. Jones-Tarver 2, Lewis-McCall 1, DLH's Olympic Final match etc.
