Frazier had a faster hook then Ali's left jab, IMO. Easily Frazier.

Originally posted by El InvictoWas anyone aware that the reason that Tyson's left hook was so deadly was because he is a naturaly left handed?
Joe Frazier- also left handed, but fought orthodox.
I did not put Joe Frazier on the poll bc many people, including me, believe that the best left hook in the history of boxing is Joe's(the poll would have been no contest).

Frazier's is probably the most famous left-hook, and possibly the most famous single punch in history. It was a thing of beauty. And boy did he throw a lot of them.
However, it can be argued that Sonny Liston possessed the best left hook in heavyweight history. He didn't use it as often as Frazier, but it was probably more devastating.
Bob Foster also had a KILLER left hook.
Pipino Cuevas' left hook could knock down a brick wall.
And of course, Ray Robinson's was poetry in motion.

That Trinidad left-hook was poetry in motion.
Although this fighter does not belong in the upper crust of boxing society his left hook is consistently on-target to the liver... "IRISH" MICKEY WARD!!!

Joe Frazier probably of all time.
Tyson really swinged a left hook in there. It was awesome. He knocked Eddie Richardson out with a FraZier like left hook. Best left hook i've ever seen. And 13 years later, he knocked down Lou Savarse in a matter of seconds with also one of the best left hooks ever imo.
Dempsey's was short and powerfull. It was great to see a little guy throw it so quickly. By far the fastest left hook ever imo.
