    Yeah... I highly doubt danny would be able to land at all vs Floyd who is basically the rigo equivalent

      Yeah, that's pretty much who I was talking about.

      Danny's not landing that left hook on Floyd. Lesbehonest.

        I think the difference is that Donaire can shorten his hook. Whereas Danny needs to be in a certain range to pull it off, and Danny's punches loop a lot more.

        So I'm going with Donaire.

          This right here and Donaire can only use his from close range.

            I would say it's a tie they both have some pop with that left hook.

              Gracias hands down makes the opponent twist way one then twist the opposite way. Donaire just knocks you out cold cause the fighters he is fighting are midgets

                Danny Garcia.

                I felt it at home when he caught Khan. I got up to reach for the remote and ended up doing the jelly legs.

                  Speed is donaire
                  Power is Garcia

                  I think donaire's is much more versatile as it can be used as a counter hook, or a leaping jump in lead left hook.. Danny so far has only used it with success as a counter. I also think donaires has more explosiveness
                  Donaire does not lead well with his left hook at all, where was it when Rigondeaux was measuring him with the jab?

                  Not the same at all, southpaws are more susceptible to left hooks, especially one that loves to measure his opponents with the jab like a Rigondeaux. Not at all equivalent.

                    Garcia has the better left hook, it is Donaire who is one dimensional with it which I concluded after reviewing it over and over. Danny has more range and is more deceptive with it.

                      going with the garsh. it gets the job done. danny puts his whole life into those hooks and he looks like a refrigerator with arms when he throws them. it's much more entertaining to see.
