note how TS asked about the best right hand, not the hardest. if we asked for that it might be edison miranda, but power alone isnt what we are talking about.
wlad has some one punch killing power in his right hand, but in terms of an all around weapon its far from the best in the sport. he hardly ever counters with it, he never leads with it and he can only set it up behind the jab or left hook. in terms of precision and timing its very good, but not on par with the best in the sport.
thats what makes hearns' right hand the best ever, not just the fact that it can take your head clean off but the precision, timing and speed of the punch. the way he could set it up in a million diffrent ways and throw it from a million different angles. he fought some of the best defensive fighters in history, they knew he was looking for that right but they still couldnt avoid it.
yall talk about "when wlad throws it" like he holds it back bcuz he feels like it. in reality he doesnt throw it its bcuz he cant figure out how to land it without being countered, or how to land it period.
i like donaires right hand, if he wasnt so in love with his left hook i think it would be an extremely destructive weapon. JMM throws every punch as good as anyone in boxing and mayweathers right hand has been nearly impossible to stop throughout his entire career, it deserves a mention too. hopkins' right is great too, like floyds not very powerful but hes a master at setting it up. leads with it, counters with it or throws it in sharp combinations, hes got such a scientific approach to boxing in general and that right hand is thrown with incredible skill and intelligence. excellent timing and precision too, his oponents cant avoid it.
