    It's pretty hard to land that punch in boxing since it's slow and you can easily get caught on the way in

      Is the superman punch the one Jones nailed Woods with at the end of round 2?

        Superman punch is a fake kick followed by a punch basically, no kicks in boxing. So i doubt its legal.

            i just looked it up, and i never knew a superman punch involved a feigning kick. i always just thought it meant you leaped into the air like superman trying to **** **** up!!

                I'm wondering why nobody else knows about this fight.
                I was thinking the same thing

                JC Chavez did use it once but he was in a position to use it and it was a knockout blow can't remember who against.
                It was against roger mayweather

                Watch the whole fight here or forward ahead to about the 5:07 mark to see the superman punch from Chavez
