I still fondly recall the best left hook I've ever seen; Curry-McCrory. Some favor McCallum-Curry, but I can't see it. McCallum had to reach for that one. Curry's hook was quicker and more compact.
Just watched Wilfredo Vazquez Sr vs Eloy Rojas,the way Vazquez Sr dramatically ups his pace and starts going for the kill,after the previous 3 rounds being him banking body shots on Rojas..it was awesome. Not the most awesome punch sequence ever you'll ever see,but yeah..that knockout was awesome. This content is protected Another day to appreciate Wilfredo Vazquez Sr as a very well rounded boxer with some longevity, though a bit inconsistent.

This content is protected when the great Rocky Marciano became champ with a beautiful feint. I’d like to add Ali’s KO of Foreman and Foremans KO of Moorer. As runner ups.
I forgot to mention Gatti vs Ruelas. This was a back and forth war on the undercard of Lewis vs. Golota. Gatti ends it with a left hook. Gatti was in so many wars, this one is often overlooked. Definitely worth revisiting.
Damn, I forgot about that one. What a KO that was. Ray just exploded into the lightning combo, punctuated by Rocky’s mouth piece sent flying. Also hard to forget Graziano, after getting up, trying shake some feeling back into his leg.
I like Sugar Ray Robinson's KO of Rocky Graziano. The way Robinson lured him to the ropes and spun him around. The right hand was lightening and the way Rocky's mouthpiece flew up in the air. An explosion on Rock's chin.
If I had seen that KO in real time I would’ve been seriously fearful of Jersey Joe being dead as result. What a bone cruncher and what a way to win the title with such a punch, especially being a come from behind win.
