        Morales is old and Khan's chin is suspect but Garcia did them dudes DIRTY with his lefthook. Set up Erik lovely with 3 bs left jabs waiting for him to open up and then BOOM!!!! Idk how Morales didnt goto sleep after that 1.

          It's obviously Donaire IMO. It's not a coincidence that so many fighters are scared to death of opening up against him.

            No just no,

            Floyds got the sharpest and quickest, most technically perfect left hook throws it compact from nowhere. Can lead and counter with it. The check hook against Hatton was beautiful.

            Donaire has just got mad power with his left hook broke Mathuluba's jaw, Countered Donaire excellently, not quite as polished as Mayweathers technically and doesn't seem to throw it at will.

            And Garcia's is just so well timed and thrown with such leverage in the pocket.

            There all great left hooks hard to choose really, all have been on highlight reels with there left hook.

            Garcia throws it early and with bad intentions but at the same time he's landed on Morales who is shot and Khan who is glass chinned so we'll have to wait and see what it does to the likes of Bradley, Mattheysee or even Rios.

            Sure to say he if starts knocking those guys out with the left cross he tops the list.

            So after all this I really can't choose there all great left hooks.

              Remember watching the 2nd fight between him and Castillo which I love almost as much as the first if not more.

              And that fight was left hook mania, two guys just standing and trading with left hooks like for like.

              Brilliant stuff.

                Those were straight left. I am trying to remember Pac throwing left hook, but I really cant.

                  No the JMM knockdown in the 2nd fight was a short left hook, the Hatton KO was an overhand left.

                    Thanks for the correction, overhand left. But do you remember him using a left hook often? I cant.

                      Donaire, Garcia, Angulo and Ortiz. Although Ortiz lacks in the heart department.
