      PBF's check left hook was beautiful.
      Pac's was a overhand left, but it was more powerful.

        There's no arguing about it, it was a f**kin' left hook. Just look where the punch landed, to the side of Flattened's jaw! Geez, get some glasses people.

        Look guys, if that **** was a straight punch or a f**kin' overhand, it wouldn't have ended up on the side of the jaw!!

        The thing is, it wasn't a compact punch, that's why y'all are thinking it wasn't a hook. 'Cause hooks are usually thrown from close range.

            i say roundhouse left.

            an ode to young george foreman's roundhouse right.

            if pacquiao lands it a few more times in his next few fights i'm gonna try to start the trend of calling it a roundhouse left.

              it's not a hook.

              too much arm movement to be a hook.

                What the f**k are you talkin' about. Since when does a overhand or straight punch land on the side of the jaw, unless a fighter was positioned at his opponents side.

                Look at all of PAC's fights, guess where his famous straight lefts lands, on the center of the jaw or right on the nose!

                  did i say it was an overhand or a cross or a straight?

                  it's none of those things. nor is it a hook.

                  it's not a technically textbook punch that's why it's hard to categorize.

                  that's why people call it different things.

                  the only punches that stick to mind that remind me of it is the way david tua used to throw his right hand and how the young george foreman used to throw his right hand.

                  that's why i called it a roundhouse left because they use to call foreman's punch a roundhouse right.

                    floyd's left hook isn't his strongest punch anyways so its not fair to compare floyd's left hook w/ pac's left cross.

                      I guess PAC invented a new punch by accident. D*mn that PAC, what else will he come up with.
