      He had good timing and he was ferocious his boxing ability was pretty good from what I've seen on him.

      Also I'd have to imagine he was a good body puncher but I haven't seen to many of his fights and the ones I saw he didn't do to much body punching lol

        He had power in both hands, put combinations together well and occasionally went to the body effectively.

        His body punches sounded like a gun going off:

          Julian Jackson was a good average fighter with great speed and power in his KO punches and a killer instinct. His straight right was his best punch but his left hook was deadly to. I can't remember a harder puncher pfp. He would time a guy coming in and put his weight into a perfect punch. He had lots of one or two punch KOs.

            Shame he didn't have a chin to match his power.

            Other than that, I always thought he was a good fighter. Obviously, his biggest weapon was that god like power. If he punched any harder, he'd probably punch somebody's jaw off their head.

              power in both hands, great combination and bodypuncher, great timing and precision, fundamentally sound, good handspeed and a great chin.

              alot of clowns claim he had a poor chin but they are clueless, in his prime jackson would walk through bombs to land his own shots. but every fighter has that number of punches he can take before he cant take a punch anymore and jackson reached his. the chin is often the first thing to go in a fighter and with guys who get hit alot its always the first thing.

              you wouldnt say vargas or mayorga had bad chins in their primes bcuz they lost punch resistance late in their careers so why do it with jackson? in his prime his chin was amongst the best in boxing.

                Yeah, his chin wasn't as bad as people suggest it is. It wasn't his best attribute, but i'd put more emphasis on a poor defense as possibly his worst attribute.

                Jackson used to get hit a plenty, plus not everybody takes a shot well from Mclellan. But his defense was more of a problem for getting tagged more then he should, although he had to take the chances to land his own bombs.

                  He also had bad eyesight especially during the latter part of his career, which contributed to his leaky defense.

                    power itself is very simple
                    it's work over time. hit fast and hard and you have power. the whole body moves in unison, starting with the ground, to create a fluid transferral of weight from one foot to the other. the weight may only transfer a few inches, or it might move all the way across the body. it needs to transfer through the moment of impact to generate real power.

                    that's how you swing a baseball bat, chop a tree down, take a slapshot, and knock somebody out.

                    move an object quickly (usually a chin [really just a lever to move the brain around in the skull.) make it accelerate. a knockout is the brain accelerating and decelerating quickly. accelerating when the chin gets touched, and then decelerating when it hits the skull. it compresses the brain and pushes the lobes together. the result is unconsciousness. it's how the body copes with the damage.


                    jackson had incredible timing offensively
                    incredible
                    he knew how to make an opening and then he had the god given gift of timing his punch to take advantage of it with full power.
                    you're born with the talent to do that, but you develop it in the gym over a period of many years.

                    i think that's what separates him from some of the other legit ****ers who were not great craftsmen and boxers. fists like rocks, strength, speed and fluidity with his weight transferral, dense bones, and great, great timing.
