Ever seen a Superman Punch in boxing?

JCC showcases the first ever superman punch, against none other than the Black Mamba Roger Mayweather. No wonder Roger hated Mexicans

Used to love watching JJC fight in his prime.

They used to show most of his fights on SKY TV in the UK.;D

I think Hagler superman punched Hearns.


Good find.

Yeah, great find.
When they land, they count.

Aaron Pryor had plenty of those types throughout his career. Why not Mayweather couldn't get anything off backpedaling like that and his hands were low. That one caught me off guard the first time I saw it.

;D that was awesome, and hilarious :D always great seeing a mayweather get dropped.

that was good to watch JCC rocks man

Is that a Superman punch? That's a lunging/leaping roundhouse right. I consider a "superman" punch to be a straight left from an orthodox fighter when he's using it as part of a combination. Unlike a jab, where you don't use much body twist, if you throw a straight left after a right cross (instead of the usual cleanup hook), if you put body weight into it, it's becomes like a superman punch. Zab Judah and PacMan both use it from time to time.

I don't mean to split hairs. I forgot that the post was on the main board and not the training board :) It's gets all kinds of technical over there.
