    I'm thinking Roy Jones but I know there were several others to have had that skill. Refresh my memory. Perhaps Joe Louis & Tommy Hearns?

    Ray Robinson and Mike Tyson were the first two to jump to mind. Although in fairness Tyson tended to almost feint the jab before throwing the left hook.

        Ricardo Lopez did it better than anyone I've ever seen.

          Arguello certainly could, though it was something he did more prior to his 135lb days.
