    You put Hagler at light heavyweight and Foster hits him with a left hook like that, Hagler would be OUT!

    It must be because Nate Tubbs laid out Corrie with one punch.

    Just found this:

    "Oscar Bonavena, 203, used his left hook like a buzzsaw to chop down George Chuvalo, 215, for a majority 10 round decision at MSG Thursday night. Although there were no knockdowns in the fight, Bonavena, a 9-5 underdog, staggered Chuvalo in the 2nd and 4th rounds and even claimed to have inflicted the first knockdown of the Canadian's career in the 4th. Bonavena drove Chuvalo back on his haunches in the 4th with a series of rights to the head and were it not for the ropes which checked his backward lurch, Chuvalo might have hit the canvas." -United Press International

    Its a toss up, McCall or La Motta, could say the crack helped McCall, could say the alcohal helped La Motta. either way no one else comes anywhere near close.
