    Just curious.
    Now we all have seen many a fighter deliver a devastating lead left hook ko, but how about some examples of what we saw the other night when the punch is only thrown to setup the right hand, and has less leverage?
    I personally cannot think of any other examples myself, but maybe some of you have?

    Both of those punches had leverage. The right hand was flush, and the hook that came before it was no slap.
    Wilders KO was from the slap left.
    Thats what im getting at. Anyone ever seen a decoy left KO a guy before the right even gets there/misses?

    Lewis-Rahman 2 was the first to come to mind.

    the left is what did it, the right didnt land at all and he was already done from the left hook. that was a hard shot to the side of the head, great spot to land. it was over before he even threw the right which completely missed anyways

    Any examples where only the left lands cleanly???
    Please don't find some Tyson video where he has extreme leverage on both shots.
    I mean examples where the hook is an arm punch, and the right misses.

    No because both punches landed cleanly with leverage.
    Lewis did not get full body into that hook, but he turned it over, and the right nailed him.

    No examples ......both fights shows lead lefts turned over followed by devastating right hand connects.

    LOL that left hook would not have knocked Rahman down much less knock him out. The right hand was right on the chin and that was what KO'ed him.

    Scott got hit with a good set up left hook but the right hand didn't land at all.

    If you watch the Wilder-Scott video, Wilder's elbow does not start bending until his arm is half way to its target. Not exactly much leverage in the punch. So let's rephrase the question to read "slap left hook ko's without good leverage ".
