ive just rarely seen a fighter KO so many people with that same shot. Whether Body or Chin if he lands left hook flush the end is usually near. I haven't seen such a dominating L Hook since probably David Tua most recently. But there were many before that Joe Frazier/Joe Louis/Mike Tyson, lots more. But do you think Cottos left is as devastating as those others?

Max Kellerman certainly thinks so.
But in all seriousness, the answer is no. Frazier's hook was much more lethal and devastating. -
No because they were all heavyweights. Pound for pound is it up to par with theirs? I would say yes. All of those punches can turn/end a fight and so can Cotto's.Originally posted by DJR005 View PostComment

Then Golovkins hooks are Jesus Christ level, right? If so, then I accept the comparison.Comment

No, those guys would position themselves a lot better, they would slide to their opponents right when they utilized theirs.Comment

Haha I might have to agree w u bud. But GGG is a KO artist. Cotto is more a boxer puncher but when he Lands that left hook clean then it's usually done for. That's all I was trying to say. But u right both GGGs hands like a freak of natureOriginally posted by Golovkin View PostComment

You can never say any fighters punch is more "effective" than a heavyweights, ever! It will never carry the same weight and power obviously!
What I will say is Cotto's left hook is technically more refined than Tua's, Fraziers and Tyson's.Comment

As already stated it wouldn't be fair to compare Cotto's lefthooks to that of heavyweights. Now comparing his left hook to previous Welterweights ala Tito would be more appropriate.
That said, Cotto's lefthook couldn't break wind compared to Trinidad.Comment
