Thread: Nastiest KO I have ever seen!

It has to be Derrick Jefferson's KO of Maurice Harris in 6. The sickest KO I have ever seen, ever. Was a good scrap, too. Both fighters were down. Harris had Jefferson wobbled up to the time he got KO'd. Dramatic finish:

Honourable mention:

Mike Tyson's KO of Marvis Frazier in 1. Just sickening the uppercut Frazier got before he was brutally finished off.

David Tua's KO of, you guessed it, John Ruiz in 1. Tua didn't need to give him that left uppercut on the way down. He was already out. Glad Ruiz wasn't seriously hurt by that.

Rafael Pineda KO's Roger Mayweather in 9. Talk about being anesthetized.

Enzo v Frenkel was brutal

Yeah I'd probably go Enzo/Frenkel as well, because Enzo got brutally knocked out twice in the span of 30 seconds (with the second one being one of the worst I've seen.)

what a fight this was, brutal KO


real pity for Thompson too, if he'd have won this he'd have got another shot at nelson, the first between the two was stopped miles to early

Martinez produced a nasty KO of Paul Williams, I'll never forget the face plant or Williams' open eyes staring at the canvas.

How about Wilder's KO of Liakovich, that was the first time I've seen a guy with stiff arms and his legs still running. Pretty nasty in my opinion.

Yea. That was a retirement, stay away from the gym and boxing all together kinda ko's. One does not come back after being smashed like the way he did. Your ego won't allow you to come back.

Are we sure he doesn't have brain damage as a result of that ko?

Enzo has been stopped too many times, he needs to hang em up.

Mike Tyson had some terrific KOs, but the one that stands out in my is the one of Michael Spinks. Fast and brutal.

Bob Foster had a sledgehammer of a punch. I wasn't sure if Mike Quarry was ever going to get up again. Truly frightening power, in my opinion. That dude will always be sir to me, I don't care how old he gets.

Merecer v Morrison was brutal and unanswered punches

True. But Morrison wasn't really anesthetized like the others mentioned here. The looks on the guys I put up faces was almost as if they were on death's door. Morrison was just dizzy for too long, but it was brutal for how long it went on.

1) Manny's ko of Hatton was brutal. Very similar to Sergio's ko of Paul Williams.
2) Vincent Pettways ko of Simon Brown was brutal.
3) Sam Peters ko of Jeremy Williams was another bad one. He almost took his head off.
4) Hearns destruction of Cuevas and Duran were equally impressive.
5) Ray Robinsons ko of Fullmer.
6) Erik Morales ko of Auggie Sanchez.
7) Glenn Johnson ko of Roy Jones jr.
Tua ko of Ruiz.
9) Lennox Lewis ko of Hasim Rahman and Razor Ruddock
10) George Foreman ko of Michael Moorer.

I see JMM's KO over Pac must have given ya'll repressed memories.
You can actually hear Pac's face slam off the floor.

James Page VS Andrey Pestryaev

Julian Jackson vs Drayton

Julian Jackson vs Graham

If Martinez didn't quit he was getting the Williams treatment himself.

I was watching Manny v. Hatton with my cousin. When Hatton went down my cousin started yelling at the ref to start counting (he does not trust any ref), anyway I started laughing my ass off because it was clear as crystal there was no need for a count. My cousin finally caught on and started laughing too. All he said was, "Fucking referees."

Two KO's stand out in my mind, because the victim took several punches clean to the head while totally out on his feet:


Gatti KO over Gamache
Cintron KO over W. Matthysse


Closeups of the victims' faces showed the lights were already out, but the legs hadn't found out about it yet.
