    How could you not include wlads left hook here ? Trumps everyone in left hooks power. Is he too large so he's disqualified ? Unfair advantage ?

    GGG has a Great left hook too

    You truly haven't seen his damaging left hook over the last 2 decades ??? Holy shot. His left hooks that almost killed pulev are recent devastating brutal career changing left hooks.

    Right. Name me a 6'5+ heavy with good hooks.. Throws it with perfect technique, quick and a lot of power. Most of the best HW hookers have been smaller guys like Morrison, Frazier, Tua, Tyson, Povetkin etc. Wlads left hook is an extremely underrated punch. Top 10 of all time? Certainly for heavyweights that's for damn sure.

    Wlad has an unbelievable left hook, the fight against Pulev is proof enough, he is more known for his straight right hand but his left hook is also terrifying.

    Also the punch that had IRON CHIN Aj all but out on his feet after wlad rose in round 5 were 2 devastating left hooks.

    Bud, start taking off your rose colored glasses during fights
