    There is nothing at all special about Wlad's left hook.

    Im sorry but Wlad and Lewis dont deserve a mention.

    Best of all time at HW, Morrison, Frazier, Tyson, Tua

    At the lighter weights i always liked ODLH, and Titos short left.

    But did David Tua have the most powerful left hook? That's the question.

    Ruiz had a **** chin, and as a result of the Tua fight adopted an ugly style to protect that **** chin.

    Put Ruiz in with a prime Tyson 10 times, and all 10 times it ends within a round.

    Shavers almost knocking Holmes cold is more impressive than anything Tua's ever done.

    Ruiz had a solid chin you muppet. Ugly style or not; he wasn't even knocked down again until he fought Haye, miles past his best.

    Yeah, getting knocked out by Tyson indicates you have a china chin right? :rolleyes:

    Ruiz had a solid chin, and no amount of gibbering imbecility from a Tyson fanboy is going to change that.

    Tua knocking four top fighters clean unconscious is more impressive than anything Shavers has ever done.
