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.
Re: Best KO's In Each Weightclass
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
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qtFD69fO50
Junior Welterweight:
Beautiful one shot KO
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGIUQ1mcZ_U
Brutal finish
