    I've seen every one of his fights. He throws it. Ridiculous to call it his signature punch as he throws many other punches with much greater frequency

    I think Fouts was more calling the Corrales Floyd`s signiture win.

    I may be mistaken but I thought I heard him say it was his signature punch as well. I disagree that Coralles is Floyd's signature win as well but that's another discussion

    I was talking about the technique, if Tyson was at Floyd`s weight throwing the hook the way he did in this vid it would land harder than Floyd`s did on Corrales.

    I agree that hook for hook that Mike's is harder than Floyd's but I think it would be a real struggle for Mike to get down to 135. To be honest, I highly doubt he could've done so.

    Generally making statements with no substance to back them up is a waste of time yes

    Of course Tyson had a better hook than Mayweather. You're comparing one of the best offensive fighters of all time to a defensive wizard. Kind of a silly and obvious thing to point out. Like saying a running back is faster than a lineman.
