i was just wathcing the hagler-hamsho i believe the second fight and that lunging right hook marvelous landed was a thing of beauty especially since it came right after the ref. separated them. but what to you guys has been the best right hook ever?

Good choice,but the one he hit Obelmejias with in their rematch was better.It may have been an overhand right,but I believe it was a hook.The shot that floored the steel chinned Hamsho caused Mustapha to break his leg on the way down.

How about honorable mention for the two right hook body shots Robinson used to position Fulmer for the famous left hook?

That's a great choice. My guess would be most fighters are right handed so there are a great many dynamite right hand shots to choose from. That said, Marciano's right hand against Walcott would be my choice too.

To think it traveled about six inches.That was the epitome of leverage.
