very hard to say he is better than these two considering how good theirs is but it was a left hook once again last night imo that put margarito on queer street, left hook against mayorga, left hook against vargas etc.
is it comparable to trinidad or oscar?
At their primes I believe 1-Tito, 2-Oscar,3- Mosley. To me the main difference is that Tito and Oscar usually landed theirs on the side of the jaw while Mosley land his straight down the pipe,right on the middle creating a more concussive shot as he snaps their heads backward instead of sideways. Just to compare, see Mosley's left hook against Vargas,Mayo and Margarita(8th round) and see Trinidad's left that he stopped Campas with which was right down the middle...he almost decapitated Campas with it and yes if wasn't for the referee holding him he would of land to the floor face first.
De la hoya's left hook is in a way a myth...He knocked Vargas out and Quartey down with it but they were already ready to go....Mosley's is much more snappy and springy

Maybe especially now. Oscar used to have a great left hook, but other than Vargas and Mayorga it's been about 10 years since we've seen it devastate opponents.
