Best straight right ever?

There are many. Tszyu against Judah or Mitchell in 2nd fight come to mind.

Are we talking straight right that lead to a KO or just which fighter had the best straight right?

Nigel Benn threw a mean one, IMO.
He hit Gerald McClellan so hard with his straight right hand that it left the GMan blind forever.

I was thinkin KO's, but watever. Surely a fighter with an incredible right would lead to a great KO right?

LL over rahman and just about everyone he ko'd

Lewis' right hand that floored Rahman is easily the hardest punch ever landed, but at the same time it wasn't a straight punch. Not like the one Hearns landed on Duran that KO'ed him. That was the hardest straight right I've ever seen landed.

Ditto. But I haven't watched the Benn-McClellan fight recently and I remember that being a huge punch.

Benn hit Barkley harder.
But he landed many very hard shots on Barkleys huge head, one of them was a great right.

Wat about Tysons right against Holmes?
Or Berbick.

Although Lewis hit hard, id say Marciano's short right against Walcott was harder.

Best straight right ever?
