Would you say Cottos left hook is as effective as Fraziers/Tuas/Tysons?

No, if he KO's Canelo or GGG in a round then maybe you can compare him to Tyson, Tua or Frazier. Those guys were throwing bombs that could kill a man, Tua KO'd John Ruiz in 19 sec and Micheal Moorer in 30. We all know Tyson was the king of the quick KO's. Cotto couldn't finish off Sergio early and the fight went 9 or 10 rounds with Sergio doing nothing, the 3 fighters named would have won in the 1st or 2nd round against a shot and ring rusted fighter. Cotto is good but Rodriguez/ shot Martinez/ Geale fights would make ANY good fighter look good.

I think it is. Cotto has a very large amount of KOs and most of them came mainly as a result of his powerful left hook to the head and body. He is left handed and his left hook is one hell of a punch. Just ask Geale. Cotto knocked the iron jawed Clottey down with a left jab which is also a great punch. That shows the power he has in his left. His left hook combines speed with getting his body into the punch.
