    One of the hardest hitting left hooks ever but certainly not one of the best

    Lewis? Hmm, no. It was almost nonexistent. Far from elite. Wlad, Morrison? Yes, definitely. Jefferson? Very powerful, but somewhat telegraphed. And there were a lot of great/very good left hookers out there - Tua, Brewster, Ruddock, Cooney. Mike Tyson and Bert Cooper also had excellent left hooks even if it wasn't their primarily weapon.

    Certainly not.

    Whyte might not even be in the Top 25 since Frazier.

    Guess i can't really argue with this. Lewis should have used his hook more. Was effective when thrown.

    I can only assume it is by someone who just recently got into boxing and most likely has never boxed.

    He had one of the best left hooks in history but he had no idea how to throw it when he wanted to, the snap on the Chisora knockout was perfect, he hit Parker with a great shot but Parker had a beast of a chin so it didn't work lol

    Although that was obviously a very good clean shot, there was nothing special about it by any means.
