Iron Mike would be proud of em. That was like a jumping right hook to the dome with massive torque.

I'm inclined to believe this. He couldn't submit Pat Berry after having him on the ground for most of the round. Then he came out gassed looking and got totally destroyed. Maybe he needs to go to Bellator or start looking for a new line of work.

One does not throw a right hook from the orthodox stance.

Lolz...of course you can throw the right hook. Usually pivot lead leg which should be your right, but can be done if you're in the orthodox stance. Just means your power comes from your right leg and would leave you WIDE open for a counter.
It's unconventional. But from what I can remember Pat did a jumping right hook in that flurry because he was a bit too close for a full extension right overhand.

If you are throwing a right hook it's because you switched stances. Period.

*Sigh* Much ado about nothing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hook_(boxing)
Hook punches can be thrown by either the lead hand or the rear hand, but the term used without a qualifier usually refers to a lead hook.
http://boxing.isport.com/boxing-guid...nches-the-hook
Right Hook (Orthodox Boxer)
The right hook also produces power capable of stunning an opponent. This punch must be thrown at close range and depends heavily on timing. It is important to note that the right hook relies on torso and hip rotation, not on a wild swing of the arm.
BARRY was not in the position to throw a right cross at close proximity so it looked like a jumping right hook to finish off Rosario.

Talk to any boxing trainer and they'll slap you silly for saying such a thing.

If that's not a hook then I guess everybody else is wrong.

Round 2
Del Rosario comes forward swinging an uppercut. Barry stuns del Rosario with a huge overland left, smells blood and blitzes. A right hook lands on the temple and another right on the jaw puts del Rosario down for the count, slumped against the fence.
(Listen to Joe Rogan describing it as a hook as well.)
http://www.mma-core.com/videos/fight...art_2/10047682
He wings a right hook from the orthodox stance to the temple and another right hook with his back foot leaping forward for extra torque to finish.
Any more debates.

That was some weird hook-downwards uppercut right there. And the follow-up was just beautiful.
And let the man cry.
