Fraizer's left-hook had zero impact on George Foreman, which was especially evident in their second fight. I feel if it had been Tyson in there it would have been a different story.

How is Chuck Norris not a part of this discussion? ;) Foreman fought a few good left hookers; Tommy Morrison and Gerry Cooney for instance. Perhaps his chin was just too good?

Foreman never let frazier get set to throw a punch...thats like saying foremans punch had no effect on ali but fraziers did....there are so many dynamics to throwing a punch and boxing in general..polecateddy wrote:Fraizer's left-hook had zero impact on George Foreman, which was especially evident in their second fight.

It certainly would be a different story, the odds that Tyson would be floored in the exact same time frame would be astronomical.polecateddy wrote:Fraizer's left-hook had zero impact on George Foreman, which was especially evident in their second fight.

I'm surprise nobody mention Pipino Cuevas so far. He had a great left hook.
Out of those three Frazier for me.

Frazier left hook was more deadly, he could nail you with it in more positions and he was better at setting it up.
Frazier needs to get in to throw it but sometimes he jumps and lands it like he did on ali in the first fight.
Tyson's left hook could be deadly too, but I'd rather fight prime Tyson than prime Frazier, prime Frazier wears you down, gets stronger over the rounds and is going to beat your ass down in the 11th through 15th, ask ali. TYson, if you survive 4-6 rounds you aren't going to get hurt much, if he cannot knock you out by then you have a decent shot to win.
