Has anyone got that gif/ name of the fighter who scored a KO with a long range hook?

It wasn't just any long hook either it was a very long range casting hook that you don't see in boxing usually.

He was a black fighter, he was a southpaw, he scored a KO with it, and it was someones avatar on boxing scene for a long time.

I will be very impressed if you can answer this 1, takes a lot of knowledge to know.

Thanks Andre good guess and thatw as fun to watch but Marvin throws his hooks more ridged as is proper boxing technique.

The boxer threw it exactly like this. He was a relatively modern boxer.

That was a fantastic long range hook, but it wasn't a casting hook like shown in the video. The guy im looking for threw it like the sambo casting punch in that video and he also scored a KO with it but it looks very different. It was a long range rear left casting hook.

Seen Paul Williams throw some like that.

Can you be a little more vague;):confused:

Not sure what you mean punch wise?

Never been a member at boxingscene or wandered through their forum. Always found it a little noisy so the avatar hint is no good.

The southpaw narrows it down some but my confusion over the punch described gets me thinking to much. I was going to say Moorer on that close to 7 foot Mike White but that went the distance. I reviewed Nunns career in my mind to no avail. I even considered Tyson cause he's a southpaw, converted and he threw some odd hooks from what appeared to have started a long ways away.

Perhaps @Andre is right and its someone you would least suspect like Whitaker.

Paul Williams also sprung to mind for me. But to be fair there isn't much to go on.
