Most Enjoyable Knockout?

What is everyone's favourite knockout? Not nessecarily the best, but the one that you personally enjoyed most at the time.

I'll kick us off with Lewis-Rahman II.
I never wanted to see anyone KO'd as bad as i wanted to see Rahman go. I thought the way he behaved between the first and second fight was a disgrace. Then the knockout itself, the sound - like the double thud of a pillow, the commentators - 'they're telling him no to counter-punch...Boom!Boom!'. The way Rahman fell like Wurzel Gumidge (sorry non-UK users), And finally the fact that Lewis did it one round earlier than Rahman did it to him.

Hopefully (please, please, please) it'll be JM Marquez KO of Pretty Boy in September!!!

ha, Yea that might run mine close. Fingers crossed.

Mayweather KOing Hatton remains my all-time favourite, although Corrales stopping Castillo on his feet runs it close.

favorite recently is Pavlik over Taylor, not sure why I was so excited by that, I'm not a huge fan of Pavlik but I guess I was just over Taylor as MW champ.

I enjoyed the hell out of Tarver-Jones II Thanks Antonio!

Honorable mention to Arguello's KO of Billy Costello.

"Enjoying" a knock out seems a bit sick. I normally feel sorry for the guy that gets sparked. But it would be a lie to say I didn't cheer for certain KOs...

I cheered Froch doing Taylor in the final round.

Khan getting sparked was good because of a big winning bet.

Oscar sparking Mayorga was good because I was told by someone that I didn't know boxing for picking Oscar by KO.

Audley getting sparked was great because he's a cunt.

Yea, see your point. I myself USUALLY feel sorry for the guy, and would never want to see someone getting seriously hurt, but nobody can deny the enjoyment of certain knockouts, this is boxing after all. I should have used a better word maybe :-\, but then The Ring magazine have a knockout of the year, so they clearly enjoy them :)

I enjoyed Kostya Tszyu knocking out Zab Judah just because was funny as hell.

Hagler over Mugabi.

To see Hagler in the neutral corner beckoning Mugabi to get up, priceless picture of someone enjoying their work !

Boxing: Kostya Tszyu vs. Zab Judah

MMA: Dan Henderson vs. Michael Bisping

Toney's kayo over prince charles williams.

The sparking of Audley Harrison.

And Corrie Sanders, peace be upon him, flattening the pretend-German laboratory creation Klitschko.

Riddick Bowe knocking out Jorge Luis Gonzalez.

Mitchell Rose knocking out Butterbean.

Roy Jones beautiful knockout of Virgil Hill.

David Tua knocking out John Ruiz is probably my personal favorites.

Martin Lindsay sparking Derry Matthews.
Michael Sprott over A-Fraud.

Favourite 2.

Roy Jones Jr vs Montell Griffin II

Maybe not Jones' best but after Griffin acted so stupid after he clearly lost in the first fight I got lots of satisfaction after seeing him trip all over the ring.

Oh ya and...

Amir Khan vs Breidis Prescott :D :P

:o

I agree an odd choice of words however in the spirit of the thread the KO I enjoyed the most had got to be KZ, Zab Judah.

When you think KO's,you can go a few routes.Guys you love to see scoring them or guys you loathe taking them....or their is always the Tye Fields type ;D

Within my allll time top 5.Every single second of this classic, the finale was priceless.

I think I made two posts about how Jones used to rub me the wrong way. That knockout has to be one of my favorites ever!

Personally, I think I would have to go with Pacquiao vs Morales II or Pacquiao vs Hatton.

Hearns-Duran for me.

Mosely knocking out Ricardo Mayorga in the last second of their fight causing Larry Merchant to exlaim 'Shane Mosely, I love you!' was pretty awesome.

Mosely may have struggled that night but he ended it looking like a legend :cool:

Enjoy in a sick way:
Nonito over Vic
Tszyu over Zab


Enjoy as far as boxing/spectacular:
"Locomotora" Castros come from behind KO over Jackson I
Jeffersons hail mary KO over Maurice Harris

Sadly my favourite is probably the most tainted of all, Benn V McLellan.

The actual stoppage itself and the lead up in terms of a real battle puts it up there with the best fights of all time. The overall outcomes releagates it to being one of the least favourites for all the wrong reasons.

Before anyone has a go at me for picking this , I must say that on the recent anniversary of the fight someone put a post on the BBC website being critical of GM and his involvement in dog fights etc.and his not being a great person, I complained to the BBC and had this removed as it was irrelevant in terms of boxing.

This was two warriors going at it with a drastic outcome resulting from a great display of courage from both.

My favorite is Julian Jacksons come from behind KO of Herol "BUMMER" Graham , remember shouting for joy when that happend.

Also Michael Nunns KO of Sambu Kalambay was a real shocker.
