Behind the Back Punch

[bengidaro]

I was at the Blue Horizon and a welterweight named Henry Lundy threw a behind the back punch twice both of which landed. I had never seen this before. Is it just me or is this unheard of?

Pernell Whitaker did it a few times.

A behind the back punch??? I dont understand? How does that work??

Is it like the foul punch Calzaghe hit Jeff Lacy with?? - When Calzaghe had Lacy in a clinch/pseudo headlock, in which Calzaghe punched Lacys head from around his back?

Boxers will get away with it when the ref's not doing their job right.

I feel really bad for Augustus. He has seriously been robbed of more fights than anyone in history. He just has a way of pissing of refs. He is such a good fighter too. Floyd Mayweather said that his fight vs Augustus was the hardest fight of his career.
