An overhand right is a punch that European fighters rarely use. In Europe, boxing technique is based on the right cross which is the more safe, clean and perhaps the more 'stylish' shot. Overhand right is seen mostly as a novice technique.

However a quick, relaxed overhand right is a destructive weapon.

Name some experts of the punch. Tim Witherspoon is one, who else?

 

Mike Tyson

 

Lewis. Vs Tyson. I remember seeing it and thinking "such skill".

 

Ken Norton. The Bobick KO might be the GOAT of overhand right exhibitions.

 

That Bobick lad looks like he never spent a day training.

 

I remembered there was some footage of Terrible Tim explaining the overhand right.

Starts 2.08:

 

Seems like a really cool guy. Not sure the Brits are still mad at him.

 

Derek Williams.... Jesus forgot about him. He was the guy who had nothing nice to say about Vitali after the Sanders fight.

 

Maidana had a good overhand

 

Manny Pacquiao would like to nominate Juan Manuel Marquez.

 

Mr. "About Billions" can attest to that.

 

The ko was a straight rh not an over. I dont recall marquez using a lot of overhand

 

It was an overhand but Pac ran into it, Marquez didn’t need to get the full extension.

 

Yeah youre right, was a bit of an over hand

 

He also dropped Pac earlier with an overhand.

 

Riddick Bowe

 

How the Hell did no one mention Marciano yet?

 

Marciano

 

Qawi had one of the all time great overhand rights.

 

So did Saad.
