Second weakest punch in boxing behind the jab is any Paulie Malignaggi power punch
Is the overhand right the second weakest punch in boxing after the jab?

It's a fire and forget punch. And a great way to get countered. It's also the most common punch an angry drunk will throw in a bar fight. It has no place in boxing.Ok not the overhand right hook with a slip. That is one of the most powerful punches. MMA guys seem to love it.
No im talking about the overhand that comes from 12 oclock to 6 oclock. Comes down onto the nose or collar bone from above. This is a true overhand, and its not used hardly ever anymore because its utter crap. In-fact you've probably never seen it before its used so little.
Is it the second weakest punch after the jab? (unless theres a left hand version of the same punch?)
It feels like its all speed and snap and you dont get the same body-weight behind it like with the hook or cross.Comment

It's good for taller fighters that's fighting a guy that likes to duck down low, and put up a high gaurd, or for shorter fighters that are fighting taller guys that have a high guard.
Depending on the situation, it can be one of those shots your opponent doesn't see coming, and puts his lights out.Comment
