Who had the hardest Left Hook in the Heavies?

[Jody Lane]

Tyson was the best puncher, left or right hand that boxing has had in any division, period. Everyone just remembers him after he snapped. There isn't a heavyweight in history that would have been able to deal with a prime, in shape and focused Tyson's speed and power.

There are plenty of guys who would have whipped Mike's a** in his prime...here's a short list

Foreman
Bowe
Holyfield
Lewis
Louis
Frazier
Ali
Ray Mercer

I agree with most of that list so have a CC Lyle. As far as only remembering Tyson after he snapped? Hell I never thought he was right, even early on when in 1987 he was talking S*** about making men squeal like women from his punches. It showed an immaturity that followed him through out his career, not just after the bite-fight.
