    trinidad from the list. but among all fighters, a lot had great left hooks. fraziers left hook was deadly, hearns lefthook to the body and head was a great punch in his arsenal, rjj left hook lead out of nowhere was something else as well.

    De La Hoya on that one. I read somewhere he is a natural lefty and boxes orthodox, not sure for sure if thats true but if it is than no wonder he has such a good left.

    Henry Cooper's left hook did the job nicely, just ask Muhammad Ali.

    Hatton has a nice left hook, not the best- but nice.

    Gerry Cooney had a great left hook, but nothing else.

    Today it is Wmadimir Klitschko, shortest, most precise, and most powerful. All time I go with Joe Frazier, it was beautiful to watch. I am only talking heavyweights, otherwise there is too many variables.

    Tito had the best Left Hoot of the 3 listed in this Thread.

    There are guys with better left hooks than him - but he's the best out of the three.
