    If Joe is such a slapper, how come.....

    he manages to cut people? RJJ and Lacy both had some pretty serious damage to their faces, whilst i dont think Joe has the heaviest of hands, all of this "slap" talk has now been dis-proved purely by the damage his culminate punches cause? i am sure the Americans wont agree with this but i feel is is only fair Joe gets the credit he is due....

    He threw a hook the glove slices the skin has it connects nothing to do with if he slaps or not...

    For the record though his slapping wasnt that bad in the jones fight
    He looked to be punching full on...

      because he hits them with sloppy punches and not straight solid ones?

      you don't have to get hit hard to get cut. how many times do you see people get knocked down or out with a punch that caused a cut?

        He slaps a lot to protect his hands and increase his workrate, but he'll mix in hard shots at times in with the slapping shots.

        He also probably has fairly heavy hands anyway, so he can throw a lot of slaps and arm punches but still the damage will build with the activity.

            not by me.

            i associate heavy punches by the recepient getting stunned , hurt , knocked down or out.

            heavy punches can 'cause a cut but that doesn't necessarily mean a punch that caused a cut is a heavy punch.

            grazing punches can cause a cut sometimes. just depends on how the gloves impact the skin not on how hard it is.

              You ask Roy Jones if any of the proper punches Calzaghe put into him (the body punches that he sat down on) were hard or not. Cos I saw Jones who never had any problems with body work utterly spent because he'd been ripped to the body so much.

                Calzaghe really beat Jones body up. Those right hooks to the body were really tough Roy was feeling them by the 3rd and was wincing badly.

                  This I will agree with Joe landed some really good body shots.

                    His punches are soft and akward lookin. But he lands enuf of them in succession that he can bust guys up.
