    Patterson was always one of my favorites.. He had one of the worst jaws I've ever seen, but i think he had a great left hook. didn't he floor Ingemar Johnanson with it?

    Yeah, but he didn't just floor Johansson with it. He knocked him cold and left him with his leg twitching.

    A lot of people see Ol' Tommy Boy as a joke for being in Rocky 5 but the guy could punch and his left hook iced some pretty good fighters.

    Just watch his fight against Foreman and you'll see how good a fighter he was.

    Sorry man, but please feel free to add some names. I was really only focusing on fighters who were basically known exclusively for their left hooks.
