hi im new here, this is my 1st thread.
what are the best punches in boxing history that you guys have seen. when i mean best punches, i mean the perfect one punch ko, right on the button!
these are my top 2 in no particular order;
1.On January 2nd 1957 Gene Fullmer captured the middleweight title, the rematch was scheduled for the 5th of May.
Fullmer had a boxing style of a barroom brawler, a granite like chin, and had bulled his way to a fifteen round decision in his first match against Sugar Ray.
For the rematch, Sugar Ray studied the fight films of their last encounter to discover a flaw in Fullmer's style. the flaw was that when Fullmer throw a right to the body, he left himself wide open to a left hook to the jaw. So the trick was to get him to throw that big right to the body.
Midway through the fifth round, Sugar Ray was being backd up into the neutral corner where he faked a left hook leaving his body exposed to the inevitable body shot. Fullmer took the bait which in turn left his jaw exposed. Sugar Ray put all of his 159 and half pound weight behind his right hook, which landed square on the exposed jaw of Fullmer. this punch was later known as a perfect punch.
2.September 23, 1952 Walcott vs. Marciano 1
For 12 rounds Walcott traded bombs with Marciano, beating him to the punch in most exchanges. Throughout those 12 rounds, Marciano pressured Walcott relentlessly, and Walcott was able to answer with his own bombs.
In this bout, Walcott scored with some of the hardest punches he had ever thrown in his career. On the other hand Walcott took some of the greatest punches he was ever hit with, and showed no visible signs of slowing down going into the 13th round. Going into the 13th round in his first fight with Marciano, Walcott was clearly ahead in the scoring. In fact, Marciano needed a knockout to win on two of the three official scorecards. Had Walcott chose to box Marciano in those last three rounds, instead of trying to knock him out, he probably wins a unanimous decision and retains the title.
In round 13 Marciano landed a right hand on Walcott's jaw that is considered one of the hardest punches thrown in boxing history. The punch not only knocked Walcott out, but it contorted the side of his face. Fight over!
now its ur turn...
