Five best Southpaw punchers alltime

Hamed, Moorer, Sanders, Judah, Hagler

 

But no Pac? Surely Hagler and Naz count as switch hitters?

 

Forgot Pac, Im sure theres more I forgot more

 

Andy Ganigan (to me, the southpaw Shavers), Marvin Johnson (handed steel chinned great Galindez his first knockdown), Rolando Navarrete (nobody who saw him knock out Boza Edwards to become a champion ever forgot it), Marvin Hagler (mainly with his lethal right, not really noted as a two fisted puncher), Michael Moorer (very respectable at heavyweight, utterly nightmarish at 175, where nobody came close to lasting the distance).

 

Jim Jeffries would have to be mentioned, but he was again a swith hitter.

 

In the case of Hagler, I can't think off hand of a single highlight knockdown or knockout he produced which was not out of the southpaw stance. He was not really noted for the power in his left, but he did drop the armored chinned Antuofermo with one in their rematch, and it was a lead left cross out of the southpaw position, not a hook from orthodox posture.

If Hagler is to be disqualified on switch hitting grounds though, I'll improvise for the moment by substituting Alan Minter's name in his place. (I've seen his knockout of Jacopucci. How many other southpaw punchers have inflicted fatal injuries on a world class opponent?)

 

good shout out to gannigan:good i'll throw in irish bob murphy, who managed a TKO win over Lamotta

 

jose luis ramirez was a pretty decent banger. southpaw to yeah?

 

You feel that Ganigan truly hit that hard? Not disagreeing but thats a pretty serious compliment of Andys punching power.

Was he really Pacquiao before there was Pacquiao?

Also, have you ever seen Navarrete/Limon?

It reminded me of a Friday the 13th movie. Limon eating absolutely everything Navarrete threw and just walking him down, round after round after round.

 

His KO ratio is misleading if you ask me. :think

 

ganigan's destruction of o'grady was terribly impressive but arguello completely dissected him. great power but not elite skills

 

true. his right hook was good. heavy but not exactly devastating

 

George Ko Chaney !!!!!

 

"Tijuana Cab Driver" syndrome obviously.
