Welcome to the Boxing Board. I'm Addie Olidepo and I'm here to settle once and for all some of the biggest debates in boxing.
That was on the top of the list on Google, wasn't it?
One second pause.
Where did you get her from, man?
I think we all know Roy Jones Jr. throws that hook, it's lights out, it's game over. But
his hook was more about athleticism.
Yeah. Sorry. Sorry if I sorry if I've just got natural athleticism. I I d I do apologize.
Oh my god, I should have gone that's what I was gonna say. Was you gonna go m- Okay,
if you fight Thomas Hurns and you hurt him It's a it's a lose lose. Yeah. If you fight Thomas Erns and he hurts you, it's a lose.
Andy on the Depot, people, boxing boards. And today we have a great subject. They're all great subjects, but today's a special one because we're going to be talking about this. And this. We're talking about the punches, the best punches in boxing. And we have four categories to make this discussion a very good one. Now they are as follows: the jab. The hook, the uppercut, and the rib breaker, the body shots. Now I have two very special guests to do this with me. I have on my left. I will call him Sir Johnny Nelson because I feel like he deserves that title. Uh former cruiserweight world champion, one of the most recognizable faces in British boxing. We should have music here for this man, but we will clap instead Johnny Nelson.
Johnny Nelson in the building. Pay me that money later, sir. Pay me that money later. And on my right, massive fan of this lady. I think she's one of the best voices upcoming in the sport of boxing. If you don't know her, get to know her. I am talking about former team G B boxer as well. So she comes with, you know, the numerals. Ruth Raper, ladies and gentlemen. Ruth Raper. Come on. Yes. Too cool calls is too cool for sport. So this is how it works, ladies and gentlemen. Um, we will discuss each category. Now we are talking, as I said, the punches. I will repeat the categories again. They are the jab, the hook, the uppercut, and the rib breakers, the body shots.
What is the premise of The Boxing Board’s debate on the greatest punches?
Now, as we discuss a category, if you mention said fighter, that fighter is now off the table. I will give you an example. If you mention Tommy Hunt, Hearns for jab, you cannot mention Tommy Hearns for the uppercut. He's done.
Alright.
Yeah. That's it. We will have forty five seconds to bring your debate forward. We will discuss it. We will throw to Tom, our producer, who will decide who the winner is. But forget Tom, the most important people is you at home. You will decide. So get into the comment section and decide who the winner is. Ruth? Can pick any of the categories. And you will then have forty-five seconds to name a fighter and name said punch. Are you ready?
I've got Johnny giving me the death stair here, so I'm a bit worried. I'm trying to think tactical, I'm trying to think right, who have I got that obviously everyone else is gonna choose, so I get there first.
Very important.
But you know what? I'm just gonna go straight away off the bat. Best jab. This is not the fashionable choice. But I'm going for the one and only money Mayweather. Now like I said, I know kid. I've got it. No, listen to me. Hear me out. Hear me out. He's youngsters. Listen, listen. I know he's not the fashionable choice. But 15 time world champion, five weight divisions, the ultimate boxer, the ultimate IQ. I heard
a reactant.
And what no no no no no, what tool does the ultimate boxer need?
