    Hearns right wasn't the quickest or most accurate, I'd say..

    It was devasating though.

    Mayweather's straight right is up there on accuracy and speed

      Tommy Hearns with the right hand.

      The jab of Larry Holmes is sometimes underrated on these types of lists.

      The left hand of Manny Pacquiao has always had the power and speed, but lately has added the accuracy.

      Though he uses it far less often then the aforementioned fighters used the specified punches, Shane Mosley uses a jab that turns into a hook. It's very accurate when he gets it going.

        Arguello was far from the quickest but his right hand was one of the best I've seen.

        Joe Louis was quick and accurate with every punch.

          Shane Mosley's overhand right is impeccable. His left hook is almost as good.

            Some very good replies so far... thanks

            Have to agree with greatA about Arguello and Louis... Both had extremely effective, powerfull and accurate single punches. And of course Mayweather, whom i actually really like and enjoy watching..

            didnt thought he would be mentioned though, since most people in here seems to hate him..

              Pre Honeyghan, Don Curry was probably the most economical puncher I have seen in my lifetime,hardly ever wasted a shot,so as far as accuracy goes,I would put him up there.

                  FLoyds right hand hits WHEN he throws it.

                  But manny Pacquiaos straight left is Great.

                  and Bernards LEAD right always hits.

                    I was reading a thread on the history forum about Kostya Tszyu, and one of the posters argued that he had perhaps the fastest, most accurate punch of all time(straight right) when thrown from point a to point b.

                    Perhaps a bit exaggerated, but Tszyu undoubtfully had firepower in that right hand...

                    now, im sure some of you may be of another opinion, so if you could name a few fighters who had a faster, more accurate single punch, this thread may be open for some debate??


                    i would say Joe Louis had a superb straight right. Maybe not the fastest, but extremely accurate and powerfull...
                    Tommy Hearns ...right hand why ...He lead with his left to paint the target first.
