Wilfred Benitez' one punch KO against Maurice Hope to win the Jr Middleweight crown holds its own against these, unless maybe you have a reason to say it doesn't?


edit: OK Thread stealer mentions this. Ditto for Leonard-Greene, a totally devastating KO.

To be honest i didn't even remember that fight i can't remember them all bro those 2 just popped into my head first.

I forgot about this one at junior middleweight. People always justifiably talk about the brutal KO, but what is often overlooked is what a great fight it was in full. Youtube has the whole fight, here is the KO

Junior Welterweight:

Beautiful one shot KO

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGIUQ1mcZ_U

Brutal finish

Nunn vs. Kalambay was the first fight that I ever attended live. I think that I was 9 or 10 but I'll never forget that K.O.

Wow! I'm gonna give it a go all at once cause if I think hard it's gonna take a while... Plus to pick just one is hard.
