      Tito.

      Kostya had a better straight right hand though. Maybe not harder (Tito fought at higher weights and still hit hard a them), but more effective. Quick, short, and accurate.

        Trinidad was the harder hitter.

        Tszyu was the better technical boxer.

          actually this is an exerpt from some magazine with Tszyu describing his special punching technique
          he uses involving a second impact, what do you guys make of this, it always fascinated me

          Like a ballistics expert, he describes the science that has felled 24 other men in addition to Judah, a technique that distinguishes his right hand as perhaps the most dangerous and feared weapon in boxing. “To disable an opponent, you must accomplish what I call ‘internal hurting’. I use the example of Chinese balls, which are metal balls that contain a second ball inside, to explain,” he says. “When you throw one of these balls and it strikes the target, it will penetrate deeper because of the internal ball. There is initial impact, then a second impact a split second later. The second impact is devastating. This is when the internal power is released.

          “When I throw a punch it opens a hole in the target. The second impact, which is accomplished by delivering the punch in the correct manner, brings the internal hurt that results in concussion.”

          Is anyone fimiliar with chinese boxing, or another form of martial art where they may use a similar technique that differs from western boxing?

              Good one, Trinidad had a better left, while KT had a better right hand. Ring Mag a couple of years ago had KT in there top 50 hardesr hitter and i think he was ranked like 23 or so.
