    Just out of interest which performances by fighters who mainly used one hand do you find amazing.

    Obviously Conteh has afew.

    Any other fights?

    He threw mostly just jabs. Rarely through the straight right, unless to finish a combo.

    His left hook is superb too.

    Don't like his jab much.Sub-par for a boxer of his stature imo.It would have suited him bettter to use it more in the manner of a Davila considering his size.

    Virgil Hill was pretty one-handed in a lot of his fights.

    His left hook to the body was real classy.

    Virgil Hill is a good shout forgot about him.

    thanks

    Ernie Terrell was the quintessential one armed bandit. His whole offensive output was basically the left..mostly that long jab.

    Gerry Cooney? Just only really seen him on youtube but he looks totally one-handed, Tua used his right a fair bit when in range, it just wasnt as strong

    Im not sure if Tua is any more 1-handed than Frazier was.
