    Since nobody likes boxers status, here is a real boxing question:

    What are the nuances of every different fighters right hand punch?

    1) Thomas Hearns= dangerous righty, looked like it came from a hw, pound for pound tremendous

    2) Mike Tyson: only needed a few inches to land this devastating blow, look at Clifford etionne or Francois Botha.

    3) Lennox Lewis: like a padded baseball bat, could throw it straight or looping, just ask hasim Rahman.

    4) kostya tzsyu: had the kriptonite right hand who could drop lefties like flies: zab Judah, Sharmba Mitchell if I am correct.

    ,.. the straight right, "usually" a great punch from an orthodox boxer unless they are naturally a ''hooker" . Pivoting on that right foot and twisting your torso putting everything into it.

    What about hookers? Best left hooks,

    1) Miguel Cotto, broke Ricardo Mayorga s collar bone submitting him in the twelfth.

    2)Oscar: a natural lefty, great left hook underdeveloped right hand,

    3) Mickey ward: great left hook to the body

    4) Trinidad: dangerous left hook when he let that hand go.

    5) Joe Frazier: leaping left hook!

    6) David Tua: whoever said Joe Frazier didn't box anymore?

    What are some more of your all time punches? Or who is the best at setting up punches? Please describe their mode and/or timing!

    Honorable mention: deontay wilder and Canelo Alvarez.
