Best Knockout of all time?
What is the most brutal, the most devastating, the best knockout of all-time?
My vote goes to Ray Mercer's KO over Tommy Morrison. WOW! That was brutal. After Morrison was revived they sat him down on his stool and he was still bobbin and weavin tryin to avoid punches. He was out of it. :o
Re: Best Knockout of all time?
Jersey Joe Walcott Vs Ezzard Charles (a hybrid left hook/uppercut, sick timing)
Rocky Marciano Vs Jersey Joe Walcott
Mike Tyson Vs Trevor Berbick (he knocked him down three times with one shot, that was a peach!)
Chris Eubank Vs Reginaldo Dos Santos
Chris Eubank Vs John Jarvis

DD, I am surprised you responded to one of my topics, I was under the impression we were no longer on speaking terms. ;D
I agree the Berbick KO was a good one. Especially after all the smack Berbick talked about doin the nasty with Tyson's then wife.
Re: Best Knockout of all time?
Tyson didn't have a wife until 1988. He fought Berbick in 1986.
Re: Best Knockout of all time?
Julian Jackson over Herol Graham (obvious one), and more recently Carl Thompson on the brink of defeat against Sebastian Rothman.

You can take you pick from most of Iron Mike's collection. Such awesome power.

Now ill second that! ;)
Re: Best Knockout of all time?
Probably not the best of all time but a great knockout anyway was by Wayne Alexander on the undercard of Hatton Kostya. He turned the guy all the way round with the punch! Plus he was losing, a lucky boy!!
Surprised no-one has mentioned Maussa yet, that was class ;D

I'd choose this one too.
Also Robinson/(i think it was) Basillio & McCallum/Curry. There's something about a left hook KO.

Alexander's KO against Takaloo wasn't bad :o

Exactly what I was going to say. Takaloo looked retarded (literally) after he got hit... his eyes where so vacant looking, haha.
Ibeabuchi's TKO punch to Byrd was sick. I don't know how Chris got back to his feet so quickly... http://homepage.eircom.net/~oggie85/IkeKOByrd.WMV
Re: Best Knockout of all time?
Sugar Ray Robinson baby!
Ko'd Gene Fulmer in the 5th round by a devastating well timed left hook.
Commentator: That left hook was delivered like a bolt of lighting! Fulmer is down for the first time in his career!
Referee: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. YOU'RE OUT!
And Gene Fulmer's FINISHED!! For the FIRST TIME IN HIS CAREER, and the last.
Sugar Ray Robinson becomes the middleweight champion for the 3RD TIME!
ps. i think it was the 3rd time anyway.
