    If someone intend to punch you, and you get KTFO. Then that's not a lucky punch. You just got caught the right way.

    but everything in boxing isnt calculated dude, something happen out of luck

    take the lewis bruno example i made, he shut his eyes and swung his arm, it could have gone anywhere but it hit him right on vital part of the jaw

    there are lucky punches in boxing and people who say there arent are boring

    Lewis was always going to win that fight though, Bruno was starting to fade a little and was getting caught often in that round from what I remember.

    It's not as if he was winning every round and then got caught with the punch.

    Harrison vs Sprott was definatley a lucky punch.

    Some might even say the punch from Pac that killed Hatton was lucky, he wasn't even looking at him as he threw it. But I'm of the ilk that the punch was intended to hit the target and it did, so not really a lucky punch.

    Just realized Lewis biggest comeback and biggest splat loss happened with eyes shut HA

    one of my favs-worst was Kittakasem vs Jung koo Chang. Quincy Taylor vs Lonnie ( beasley ) was a brick. Love Carbajal but Arce shot had a bit of luck, if there is such a thing.

    Jorge Castro's win over Jackson came from a pretty lucky punch

    I can't think of any intentional lucky punches but I'm sure there are time when a fighter sparked a guy out when he actually had no intention to.

    I dunno... Is there a mad incident where a guy knocked someone out with a 'don't-hit-me' type punch?

    If that was done to the extreme, I'd definitely call it a lucky punch.

    That victory came out of the blue.

    I hate seeing the Julian Jackson KO, all Herol had to do was stay out of the way for that round and the other corner would have thrown the towel.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Maybe so. But it's true. There's no such thing as lucky punch. A "hail mary" punch is more appropriate.

    Concepcion knocking down Lopez is a good example of hail mary punch.

    Hearns-Barkley is a good one too.

    Mercer's knockout win over Francesco Damiani is one some might say was "lucky". Mercer was way behind on points in the 9th round when he throws a wild left uppercut that almost missed...clipped Damiani right on the nose. It broke his nose and he stays down for the count.

    Luck is when preparation and oppourtunity meet...

    A fighter is prepared to throw a punch when the oppourtunity presents itself.

    I know what you mean of a lucky punch but IMO the one's that have been listed I wouldn't consider lucky.

    Some that "might" (and I type that with a huge emphasis on might) be lucky...
    Castro over Jackson
    Jefferson over Harris
