Leotis Martin on Sonny Liston
Leotis landed a 'beauty' of a right-hand on Sonny, who was badly stunned from an earlier
straight right-hand and wide left-hook.
Sonny looked 'gone' as he fell face first into the canvas out in Las Vegas.
Sonny was laid out on the canvas for 5-Minutes.

Ann Wolfe's shot on 6'6" Ward that left her out cold for many scary minutes.
Re: Hardest Single Punch you ever saw in a fight
Worst I saw live was GGG body shot to Macklin. Poor guy was surrounded by medical staff for quite some time. Many of you know the sounds of those punches when you are sitting in decent seats. I thought Matty might have bought the farm.
Being a Pactard JMM KO of Manny still hurts me to this day.
Every punch Foreman threw while Ali did the dope a rope
Re: Hardest Single Punch you ever saw in a fight
Earnie Shavers, but pure power and hardness is not enough
In boxing, it is all about shortening punches making then just enough for KO and lightening quick
I think, in this sense, I favor Tommy Hearns and Julian Jackson

Frenkel's KO of Maccarinelli was brutal.

I was just going to say Ann Wolf on Vonda Ward really - but thats female boxing !
So has to be Hearns on Duran for me - sickening sound
Re: Hardest Single Punch you ever saw in a fight
Moving on the principle that a heavyweight will hit much harder than any other weight, I'd like to add Lennox/Rahman 2 to the list.

Tua on Ruiz, one that looked nice.

I thought Darnell Wilson killed Emmanuel Nwodo when he folded him up with a left hook

Ibeabuchi's hook/uppercut on Chris Byrd was fucking ridiculous....to his credit Byrd got right back up hell of a chin!

Kesslers uppercut on Calzaghe? Eubanks overhand right on John Jarvis? Groves KD shot against froch?
Eubank landed a beauty on Calzaghe that had him looking gone in the last seconds of their fight.
