2011 Knockout of the year

[:::PSL:::]

It's gotta be this...






Nonito Donaire vs Fernando Montiel

But didn't Montiel get up ? In reality it wasn't stopped till he was on the ropes and got hit again. So that can't be KO of the year.

Technically, you're right.

KD of the year maybe.





The Sports Illustrated magazine awarded it to him anyhow. Their reason: “Yes, Montiel got up from the crushing overhand left that nearly caved in half his face but he only lasted a few seconds before the referee stepped in to save him.”
