WTF is a lucky punch?!

[J.Dempsey]

its a boxing match, one opponent is trying to hit the other opponent cleanly and to inflict the most amount of damage possible..so how is it lucky (after weeks, months, years of training) to actually do so...

this is related to marquez/garcia threads where they landed 'lucky'

p.s. I don't believe in luck! I believe in hard work and training increasing the chances..

A ready made excuse.....used by fuck boys who never entered a damn ring in their lives and dont realize these are the punches these fighters practice over and over and over and over again

Garcias money punch is his left hook..yet it was a lucky punch..Marquez's best punch is a counter right hand..yet it was a lucky punch??

I believe in luck but not much in boxing unless the guy trips and breaks his leg or something

Jones-Tarver 2 was the epitome of a lucky punch

I never use the term but I think of it as a punch a guy was lucky to have landed because he was otherwise on his way to losing. Rarely does it truly negate still, but rather it depicts a scenario. I may say I was lucky to have avoided a car accident today, but it was in fact my driving skill that got me out of danger. I think some people get far too butthurt over the use of the lucky punch term.
