Named fighters KO'd in 1
I watched the Whitaker vs Hurtado fight this past weekend on FNF and saw Pernell go down on the first punch. He got up to win by ko in the late rounds but it got me thinking.
How many "named" fighters have been KO'd in the first round?
Off the top of my head I can only remember 2. Tua vs Ruiz and Tua vs Moorer. After looking up Tua, I can add Sullivan to the list as well.
This isn't a Tua love him or hate him thread, I'm just looking to have the question answered.

That wasn't a boxing match that was a street fight. It was almost like Hagler vs. Hearns in one round. Barkley is a bad mother fuker and wasn't backing down from shat.Originally Posted by Dark Lord Al

Re: Named fighters KO'd in 1
Tyson-Spinks was the first one that came to my mind.
It happened twice to Golota with Lewis & Brewster doing a job on him.
Marquez went down 3 times in the first round against Pac (How he came back from that I'll never know)
Bautista to Ponce De Leon 2 weeks ago
11-0 in Saddo Sig Bet.

Re: Named fighters KO'd in 1
I believe 19 KOs in round 1 by Edwin Valero's record?
And 10 for DPDL?

Eamonn Magee knocked Hatton down in the 1st minute of the first round when they fought in 2002 which Hatton got up from and out pointed Magee.
