What Great Fighters Were KO'd? Not TKO'd, But KO'd?
Of all the great fighters who suffered losses, who are ones that got knocked out, not had a fight stopped, but were on the canvas and got counted out? Even though a TKO counts as a KO, it's not the same. Guys have been TKO'd and didn't even get decked. Other's got dropped, but reached their feet and the ref stopped it. The two biggest names I can think of are Oscar (from Hopkins) and Duran (from Hearns). Also Roy courtesy of Glen Johnson comes to mind. Who else is there?

Henry Armstrong, Sammy Langford, Georges Carpentier, Wilie Pep, Sandy Saddler, Jimmy Wilde, Roberto Duran and Archie Moore are all in my finest 10 fighters ever, and have all been KO'd in a pro fight.

I agree, Joe Walcott got hit with that right by Rocky and sank to his knees. His arm was stuck on the rope and that was the only thing that kept him up when he was unconcious! He wasn't goin nowhere-that was a KO.
