Back in 2015 - 2016 I would speak to Julian Via emails in which we would talk in depth about punch power and some of the things he did to maximise his Knockout Power. He explained that he always had Naturally heavy hands and his first Coach who he refers to as Willy taught him how to use these heavy hands through boxing Technique... Julian talked alot about Balance and Core strength with Timing was what made him so effective when throwing bombs. A secret he spoke about he referred to as " Rooting " Where you train your toes to Curl down when momentarily bracing yourself to throw a punch.. He says when you Curl the toes down and grip the floor you can feel every muscle in the body Rip into a punch... Balance was something he said was extremely important if you want to punch with maximum leverage you need solid planted balance... Jack Blackburn taught Joe Lewis the same secret about the " Rooting " Julian said he never touched weights only pull ups and push ups with Abdominal exercises. In the gym he worked on Speed and Timing... Even using the heavybag he always focussed on speed because his power was so natural. As a teenager he would work on fishing boats and had to Reel in large heavy nets full of fish which he said strenghened his shoulders and Back Muscles which he believed had something to do with his power.
@OldSchoolStrength10 ай бұрын
Working on those fishing boats would have been great for his shoulders and back muscles but if he didn't continue to work those shoulder and back muscles their strength would have returned to how he was before he did any fishing! He had a great build....naturally.......I've seen it myself. You can work all day on your physique, but the single most important ingredient of your build is what you were given by nature!!

While I enjoyed watching him fight during his heyday an objective review of his record is in order. His resume falls well short of Hagler,Hearns type of record. He carefully avoided Roy Jones as well. Although many say Jones avoided him. Also Mike McCallum knocked him out in 2 rounds. This was after the first round in which Jackson hit him with everything. I shudder to think of what a prime Hagler or Hearns would have done to him. Jackson was powerful and impressive but he was knocked out twice in his prime.

probably because most "champions" are fabricated. there are so many incredible warriors out there who are practically nameless because big business simply just overlooks them. they are fearsome fighters but that wont necessarily equate to fame. fame is being good, but also getting the corporate backing, signing deals, and sort of becoming a brand of your own. but you need lots of capital for that.

This Jackson guy was always overlooked whenever people talked about great power punchers and KO artists of that era. In my opinion, pound for pound, Julian Jackson and Mike Tyson had the most devastating fists of the 80's. Watching their KO reels seemed surreal. It was kind of like watching a movie. For example, the Rocky franchise. It was like watching Tommy Gunn, Clubber Lang and Ivan Drago's scripted knock outs. Thank you for putting this video out there for those who don't know about Julian Jackson. Very well edited material here.

My opinion SOLEY..neither Hagler,nor Hearns,nor Leonard,or Alvarez, nor Duran,nor Julio Ceasar Chavez,Triple G,or Pacquiao,or Spence,nor the two twin brothers or any other potential middle weight during his era would have been able to handle his tremendous KO power. It was absolutely UNBELIEVABLE! P.S.I'm aware that some of those boxers weren't NOT in the middle weight division.But if some of them were Including Floyd Money-Mayweather, I would choose him.

Back in 2015 - 2016 I would speak to Julian Via emails in which we would talk in depth about punch power and some of the things he did to maximise his Knockout Power. He explained that he always had Naturally heavy hands and his first Coach who he refers to as Willy taught him how to use these heavy hands through boxing Technique... Julian talked alot about Balance and Core strength with Timing was what made him so effective when throwing bombs. A secret he spoke about he referred to as " Rooting " Where you train your toes to Curl down when momentarily bracing yourself to throw a punch.. He says when you Curl the toes down and grip the floor you can feel every muscle in the body Rip into a punch... Balance was something he said was extremely important if you want to punch with maximum leverage you need solid planted balance... Jack Blackburn taught Joe Lewis the same secret about the " Rooting " Julian said he never touched weights only pull ups and push ups with Abdominal exercises. In the gym he worked on Speed and Timing... Even using the heavybag he always focussed on speed because his power was so natural. As a teenager he would work on fishing boats and had to Reel in large heavy nets full of fish which he said strenghened his shoulders and Back Muscles which he believed had something to do with his power.
Working on those fishing boats would have been great for his shoulders and back muscles but if he didn't continue to work those shoulder and back muscles their strength would have returned to how he was before he did any fishing! He had a great build....naturally.......I've seen it myself. You can work all day on your physique, but the single most important ingredient of your build is what you were given by nature!!
Pullups would keep that strength in his back I think@@KryptonitetoallBS

How come this is the first time I'm even finding out about this dude!! 46 wins 43 KO's? That's some impressive shit!!
While I enjoyed watching him fight during his heyday an objective review of his record is in order. His resume falls well short of Hagler,Hearns type of record. He carefully avoided Roy Jones as well. Although many say Jones avoided him. Also Mike McCallum knocked him out in 2 rounds. This was after the first round in which Jackson hit him with everything. I shudder to think of what a prime Hagler or Hearns would have done to him. Jackson was powerful and impressive but he was knocked out twice in his prime.
probably because most "champions" are fabricated. there are so many incredible warriors out there who are practically nameless because big business simply just overlooks them. they are fearsome fighters but that wont necessarily equate to fame. fame is being good, but also getting the corporate backing, signing deals, and sort of becoming a brand of your own. but you need lots of capital for that.
thats exactly what im saying!
Because you are a casual.
It depends if they are won with real boxers or if they are fights with drunkards
This guy wasn't just a champion but done it with such a genuine respect for the sport and his opponents, charismatic and always smiling, what a competitor! Mass credits!
I followed Jacksons career. He was on the undercard of Chavez fights. Me and my friends knew we was watching something special when Jackson entered the ring. He became the highlight of fight cards eventually to all of us. The fighter we talked about and couldn't wait to see. Still the hardest puncher I have seen ever.
I've been privileged to have watched one of his title fights on tv when I was a kid, the punching power that he has is just scary at times. It's great to see a lot of fans now acknowledging how great he was as a fighter.
What a thoroughly respectful and decent man, no ego or inflated persona, a god fearing and likeable chap.
@Antonio Bianchia What do you mean tainted?
@@NorthAyase I think he meant taunted.but he's so flustered he didn't check his spelling
@Antonio Bianchia you’re wrong
People still thinking "god fearing" is a quality
@Brian Winter ur missing the point
I hate to see guys like him not get the recognition they deserve. It really bothers me! Thanks for covering Julian Jackson, extremely underrated!
Him and boxers like Larry Holmes..
@@bando3107 Hell yeah.
Yes you’re correct super underrated I hope he is living good these days with his family he deserves it, God bless him 🙏
never heard of him...but oh man what a great fighter in many aspects ! ooooh those killer punches o_o wtf
“When you do things right, people won’t know you’ve done anything at all”
I could sense the good nature of this man down-to-earth I should say. Julian Jackson is a true fighter and sportsman.
Julian looks like he walks around as a natural middleweight. Great to see him happy and healthy. Thanks, Hawk! 🥰
Whenever Jackson throws a power punch there's always a cracking sound. What a sinister power he had.
It's kinda freaky.
SINISTER... WELL PUT
That's the sonic boom from his fist breaking the sound barrier 👊
the woosh too, all punches make noise through the air but that overhand right right cross almost rabbit punch he threw was really distinct, timed for maximum speed at impact and to rock the jaw so it rocks the skull, clinical as fuck, the first guy to knock him out used an almost exact copy of that same inside right short hook with the step through, not quite a cross, not quite a hook ,not quite an overhand right, lookig for that sopt he can feel where he knows he got the leverage on the chin to shake the brain. terrifying...but m,ercifully swift
They all sound the same, wyta?
Boxing is ruthless, he gave his heart and soul for the sport, and when the boxing world ignored him, he responded with dignity... he owned boxing, boxing did NOT own him
I don't recall hearing of Julian Jackson before this. That was my loss. Thanks for bringing him to my attention; he was truly impressive. As a brother in Christ, I wish him all the best.
Have always really liked Julian Jackson, as a fighter and as a person. Thanks, BLTV.
When i was into boxing in the 80's and 90's ... i never really heard of this guy and it pisses me off that he didnt get promoted like a champion deserves ... this guy is a class act ... very respectful ... good guy
one of the worst is being in the don king environment.very currupt.
I say the same. But tyson was the big name then... My 2 fav fighters.
It's because he's not from the united snakes of AmeriKKKa
Exact same here, we were robbed of witnessing such talent until now. I mean I saw him on a couple of undercards for Tyson. But because of his shitty promotion that's as far as it went.
Nobody cares
Massive respect to Jackson. Getting knocked out by some dude and loses his title and then instead of being angry or sad or anything, he says "god bless you", what a wonderful human being.
McClellan is not just some dude but a generational talent ... he knocked out Jackson in the rematch too ... just watch the video on his great but tragic career.
McClelland is not doing well. His faculties are not good anymore. He got injured badly in the ring where he almost died.
@@EELLISON2012 Nigel Benn and Gerald McClellan was a war. It's hard for me to watch that fight, knowing what happens to McClellan post fight. Nigel Benn was a nightmare in the ring, he had hands of stone.
@@josephcosta5382 Very True some puncher and fighter but 1 man Benn couldn't beat like him or not was Chris Eubank.
@@alexgover3151 Eubank was a animal in the ring, lol. Great puncher and had a high boxing IQ. I liked Nigel more but I never had anything bad to say about Eubank. Their battles in the ring were legendary! Gerald obviously was not a "defense 1st" type of fighter and he took alot of punches over his career but the way Benn was teeing off on him that night is quite scary, imo. Really fkn sad. I realize it's a part of the sports but I can't help feeling that way about the man. 😭 I wish boxing would help that man out bcuz he's broke (because of the medical bills over the years) and his sisters and children are struggling financially. When I seen a documentary on that whole situation, my heart hurt. I wish I could help out but I live in northern California and it's hard here. San Francisco (bay area) is not a easy place (financially) to survive, with 2 kids.. lol
Jackson always impressed me because every punch he threw was hard. Any shot could be a knockout punch.
This Jackson guy was always overlooked whenever people talked about great power punchers and KO artists of that era. In my opinion, pound for pound, Julian Jackson and Mike Tyson had the most devastating fists of the 80's. Watching their KO reels seemed surreal. It was kind of like watching a movie. For example, the Rocky franchise. It was like watching Tommy Gunn, Clubber Lang and Ivan Drago's scripted knock outs. Thank you for putting this video out there for those who don't know about Julian Jackson. Very well edited material here.
A tedy bear that can hit like a mule.
Good comments. So true!
You can see on all accounts he's a really cool guy. Genuine and humble person, he couldn't trash talk if he wanted to. We need more like him in sports. Kudos.
He isn’t mocking his opponents he just knocks them out with style. After the fight he was always respectful and nice
@@dltguitar6532 spot on 👍
@Antonio Bianchia lol you're just a cadual hater. Quit talking about boxing, you know nothing about the sport.
Nah, appreciate everyone for what they bring to better any sport. All your greats or game changers aren’t gonna be humble and they shouldn’t have to be. Very few people can do what they do, hence is all gathering here, to watch them on video.
@@MooreVoicesMedia I beg to differ, there are plenty that are and have been very humble, right across all the combat disciplines,
Don King, the worst thing to ever happen to boxers.
To the boxing world period!
Al gayman is worse than don king
It's debatable, but he is high profile. All of these promoters are absolute crooks.
@@abdulwakeel5598 Do you think Bob Arum is a saint?
Not true.
he's a champ in and out of the ring..A humble guy with great character...
This guy could make a person fall in love with boxing. I can't believe that I totally missed him during that golden period of boxing. He is a wonderful boxing gem of pure power punching. Wow, you are out still standing, then comes the fall.
Ageeed 100% bud. I was one of the ones that he helped turn into a real hard-core julian jackson and boxing fan. Watched him with my pops when I was in grade school . Haven't seen a hitter like him since!!
I never knew what an absolute assassin and gentleman he was. Never got his credit but as you said in the internet age now he is. He seems quite happy as well. I’m glad.
@nemo pouncey yeah I’m surprised DK didn’t get him more fame and take more of his money. He didn’t help him but didn’t seem to rob him which is good.
@nemo pouncey and so weird he could never make more of him!
He was a beast, his trainers made him into a tyson of the middleweight but never trained on his defense to help him be an all time great boxer plus he was under Don King management 🙄 which alot of boxers under Don didn't get the publicity cuz he had his favors with which one can pull in the most money plus middleweights at that time wasn't as big as promoting heavyweight boxers so he def got the short end of the stick
@nemo pouncey yeah beware of guys with effeminate voices!
Jackson was the truth. When you can feel his punches while watching the video, he was hitting like a truck
Immediate like after you showed the upscaling. Won't take that for granted, thank you🔥🔥🔥

No lie I seen your comment as I was liking the video after seeing the upscaling.

Immediately, than I was going to comment but saw yours!
Fr for somebody to put extra work fs sub ND a like 💯
Wow. Never heard of him before. He definitely deserves more acknowledgement in and out of Pro- Boxing. Sport's is a young Man's game. These Legend's understand that.
The world needs more humble warriors like Julian Jackson.
It’s sad to see Julian never received the recognition he deserved back then. It’s a shame he wasn’t fairly compensated throughout his career. He was 100% championship material. And seems like a genuinely nice man. Very humble. But at the end of the day, the most important thing is his health and it’s obvious he’s doing fine. No signs of CTE, no slurring or words or inability to complete sentences. God bless he came out of those battles with his health not compromised.
Very true , I can’t imagine how many dudes he gave CTE too
From what I know, every boxer who has fought since a child and had many pro fights will have some level of cte, you won’t recognise this in a small interview. For example his family will notice mood swings and short term memory issues
Ron G , Roy Jones was another fighter who wasn't paid what he was worth.
@BadBoy Bill yes sir. No recognition bc I was there to watch Tyson every time. I really didn't even know this guy to be honest. I was a young kid but Tyson just was a like waiting to watch a Trainwreck and all over events on that day didn't matter.
He was famous tho
Can’t believe this is the first I’ve heard of this brother….. He was truly robbed of his well deserved spotlight….
He's famous
@@barrybritcher i dont think hes in the hall of fame though
@@wonder777warrior6 He is in the hall of fame. Was elected into it a few years back.
He’s not had the media coverage in recent years that some older fighters seem to get but in his day the Hawk was notorious and well known amongst boxing fans. Never forget watching him KO Bomber Graham live on TV.
Don King his promoter was a thief and a snake.
Man the precision, the patience between punches, and pure power… it’s like his fist are heat seeking missiles
His style of boxing was ahead of his time. What a great boxer! !
Jackson had a brilliant mind set - "Win Lose or Draw - I'm always a Winner" - you don't have to be a boxer to apply that kind of positivity to anything you want to achieve in life!
Agreed, thanks for the reminder and shining light on some wisdom. Even if you fail, there's mad respect in giving it all you have.
True story. Amen
Very True.!
Can i have your numerosas
He was a sorely underated fighter but a great man. At the end of the day it's the second one that counts. Great comment.
Never knew Jackson, but in one clip, he has becoming one of my all-time favorites already! Much respect, sir! God bless 👏🏿

Never heard of this guy. I feel like I missed someone special. Great fighter even greater sportsman!
I feel the same way. Dude seems like he was a great boxer and maybe even a better person.
The Hawk was a beast he just had bad promotion
You missed a great middleweight era.To me,the best middleweight era.
Sadly, there ARE thousands of boxers just like this young man ,who were screwed over their whole careers. I personally know 3 of them from the 90's and early 2,000's that were all better than 99% of the boxers we see today.....FACT
Same here, totally missed him. Wow.
That segment of him talking about feeling a shock to his elbows is just 🥶 chilling
Everyone who follows boxing knows he had the very best K.O punch in boxing history. Thanks for uploading this historic and super-quality video footage. His fight against the 'G-Man' features the heaviest punchers (of all time) by two fighters ever to step into the middleweight ring. Something of note was Jackson had to bulk up to the weight, whilst the 'G-Man' was a natural super Middleweight. What a brilliant and all round nice guy (Jackson is) and as myself an ex-Thai Boxer, he's got to be my all-time hero. I'm so happy to have discovered BLTV Extra. LONG LIVE 'THE HAWK'!
Gerald McClellan better
The best part...he said God bless you after his loss. This guy is a class act. I wish I saw these fights live.

My opinion SOLEY..neither Hagler,nor Hearns,nor Leonard,or Alvarez, nor Duran,nor Julio Ceasar Chavez,Triple G,or Pacquiao,or Spence,nor the two twin brothers or any other potential middle weight during his era would have been able to handle his tremendous KO power. It was absolutely UNBELIEVABLE! P.S.I'm aware that some of those boxers weren't NOT in the middle weight division.But if some of them were Including Floyd Money-Mayweather, I would choose him.
@@TheGrwhi1 obviously someone from 20 yrs ago could get him, I’m sure Floyd or Alvarez wouldn’t have a problem knockin him out.
@@TheGrwhi1 also, I think you’re high, lb for lb, Tyson was much better. Head movement, foot work, etc. plus fighting guys that had a foot of height in you?

Thanks for a great video! I have so much respect and admiration for Julian Jackson. His smiling and sincere face, clean sportsmanship and admirable knock out power. A real pity that he did not get his dues - Don King is such an awful thing!
The best knockout I have ever seen was that of Herol Graham. It was live on UK tv and Graham was winning comfortably and was going for the stoppage. He had a good chin himself and Jackson was looking spent and ready to go. That one single punch of Jackson rendered Graham unconscious before he hit the canvas.
Glad to see he's still alive and thriving. Doesn't seem to be a common post career scenario for most pro boxers. Sometimes being 'a star' may be worse than the more humble track of Jackson.

Terry Norris ended up with more recognition and Jackson knocked his ass out. Its a shame he wasn't handled better.
Not just a shame but a disgrace...
I concur... Look at some of his knockouts. That one on Graham... Wtfh? Out of absolutely nowhere, boom. Fight over. I kept thinking: who is this guy? Why is he not more legendary? He's goddamn intense in the ring. I only imagine being a devout Christian, his management may have been the same? And wouldn't play the scummy games, so they wouldn't want to deal with him. Such a shame. Absolute champ that if my boys put on gloves, goes on the garage wall. Edit: when I watched to the end, realised the above was misguided. Ugh. What a freaking shame. Absolute waste. He's such a good bloke too...
I just posted something akin to what u just said...I am a lover of boxing, not an aficionado by any means but for Pete sake I shoulda known this incredible talent...What a fool king was and really have no idea y he'd do him that way. This guy was extremely entertaining to watch and seemed like a great person so he definitely would have been a fan favorite. An absolute travesty is the only word I can think of....
Marketing laws and Don the rat king are responsable for this.
The “Low end theory” of King’s promotional skills…
