Summary
The Boxing Board is back to settle one of boxing’s most explosive arguments: who possessed the greatest punches in the sport’s history? Chairman Ade Oladipo is joined by broadcaster and former cruiserweight world champion Johnny Nelson, alongside former Team GB boxer and boxing writer Ruth Raper, for a debate spanning four punch-perfect categories: the jab, the hook, the uppercut and the body breaker. Can anyone compare with the snap of Larry Holmes’ jab? Does anybody deserve to top Roy Jones Jr. for the greatest hook in boxing? And which heavyweight uppercut will earn our producer’s pick as the most lethal ever thrown? Expect strong opinions, expert knowledge and plenty of names that will have boxing fans arguing long after the final bell.
