    Don't get me wrong here Kills , im not saying the man doesn't have a left hook , but a great left hook? Im kinda going to have to disagree with you there.

    What evidence have to got to put forward , Pulev? hahaha. Remember Tyson Fury laughed at Pulev and his flapping his arms all over the place mode of defence? Any man could land a left hook on that man and Wlad still had to put down his bouncy castle canvas to further limit the little movement he had.

    Who are you going to say next , Austin? The guy who couldn't beat Harold Scorniers ?? lololol

    Wheres the highlight reel of all his left hook knockouts? Who are all the top level fighters he creamed with left hooks?
    Can you show me a time he delivered left hooks to body and head? Over 60 fights surely you can show me just one instance?

    How come he Fury beat him in a battle of left hooks? How come he couldn't land a left hook on David Haye to save his life but Chisora could?? Peculiar isn't it

    Good point. Joshua was out on his feet for 3-4 rounds and Wlad couldn't come close to hitting him with a left despite multiple swings.
    Joshua showed a better display of head and body left hooks in that fight than Wlad and Joshua had only 17 fights. :roflmao:

    Bro, Aj is going to prove to everyone that he's one of the greatest ever hw fighters. And the dude is as good as we've seen after yes 19 fights.

    Wlad couldn't land the shots needed to take Ajb out, Aj proved some of his greatness in that fight. He dipped, dodged and swayed every fight ending shot thrown at him.

    Look at round 5, those 2 short and deadly left hooks landed on Aj would had ended just about every hw we've seen. The round 6 straight right on an already hurt Aj proved that in fact his chin is granite.

    I strongly believe wlad is the biggest puncher EVER (maybe LL too) . Me believing that's without question and considering wlads greatest single shot is fact his Left Hook I have no idea how any true boxing fan couldn't understand how lethal wlads left hook is.

    Not even top 10 TEN WTF. I don't believe there's a single punch more devastating than wlads left hook is.

    Finally someone mentions Patterson. His left hook was a peach! Check Patterson vs Johansson II

    You truthfully believe everyone on your list had a GREATER left hook than wlad, you are unable to understand wtf you're trying to babble on here.

    Scientifically it's utterly impossible for most of them to have a more powerful anything, come on bro.

    Buddy, most of them never did anything with their "great" left hooks.. Seriously, it reads like you just started naming OLD SCHOOL fighters that were considered punchers, wow

    I wouldn't say Lewis, Holyfield, Brewster, Cooper and Norton had better left hooks than Wlad, i agree with Marciano, Patterson, Frazier, Tyson, Tua, Morrison and Dempsey although i don't think that all of them had more powerful hooks.

    Wlad didn't use his left hook as frequently as Frazier, Tyson or Morrison but if we are talking about the destruction
    he could inflict with his left hook, he is up there with the best of all time.

    All have them have done something to warrant their status as great left hookers... Norton broke Ali's jaw with a left hook. Wlad couldn't put his left hook any where close to David Haye's chin. Do you get what im saying?

    Wlad needs his target to be stationary and lined up in front of him before he sends out any left hook. And what great hooker has a complete inability to land hooks combos to head and body?

    Look at Joshua's combo that floored Wlad in round 11. left hook to body followed uppercut and left hook to head . Perfection. Never has Wlad delivered crisp and fluid combs like that.

    Look at that. Got a moving target in front of him and he still lands punch perfect left hooks
