    DLH was a goddam beast at LW, one of the absolute best ever at the weight. Not too shabby at WW either :)

    You could debate that it was a harder shot, although I don't think it was. It's not debatable that ODLH was much quicker, shorter and sharper with his. Trinidad was a two fisted fighter while ODLH was pretty much a one trick pony with powershots though.

    Yes, just take a look at the victims in the video.

    His combinations were awesome. His left hook was just too much to bare for most fighters. Trinidad though was one dimensional.

    :verysad...I mean...Nonito has a killer left hook. I think its flashier but not more effective than DLH's in his prime.

    Tito committed more and step into his left more, but Oscar's was quicker and was a better counter hook.
