In the running you have Julian Jackson, Gerald McClellan, Cotto on the way up, Floyd Mayweather Jr. Sugar Ray Leonard, Oscar, Tyson, Lewis...
Lots of guys using their left hook as a signature punch so a lot of competition.
I'd actually say Oscar's left hook was better than Tito's but Tito had the better straight right.
McClellan Left hook ? His weapon was the right hand!

His combination he relied on most was the 1-2-left hook to the body - I dentical to Tommy Hearns and many other Kronk Fighters. The left hook was pretty much essential to his fighting style.

Puya I just saw your sig!!!
Is that you mate!!!
CC you lucky .........
Donny,
I will assume that your thinking Puya is the little guy being carried by Cotto & Tito.
That's not Puya, that's the former WBO Minimumweight & CURRENT WBO LightFlyweight champ Ivan 'Iron Boy' Calderon.

Re: Felix Trinidad: Best Left Hook of the Last 30 Years?
....speaking of Cotto his left hook is NASTY
Wladimir Klitschko has a very good left hook it's outshined by his jab and right cross but you can ask Ray Austin and Sam Peter about that left hook of his
Ray Robinson has to be up there on the all-time list along with Joe Frazier

Mick, speaking of Calderon, I was wathching Calderon-Cazares the other day, did you think he won that fight, cause I think Cazares got f#cked. Just my opinion but im curious if im the only one who though this. Ivans a good little fighter though, he moves well.
