A lot of fighters are like that. Carl Williams could take a right hand, but left hooks nailed him. Every time he was down was from a hook, but every time Holmes went down it was from a right hand.
That is true for most fighters, left hooks get more knock downs/ knock outs than any other punch.
It has a shorter distance to travel, can hit on the blindside.
