Best knock out EVER!

[KananKrus]

Muhammad Ali knocking out Foreman.

The most famous KO in boxing history.

The beauty of this KO was that, Muhammad Ali unleashed just the exact amount of firepower to dispose of his opponent.

He had a right cross fully cocked, as he surveyed the prey; "Big George”, half spun now from the barrage he duly administered, assessing if there was further need for a continued onslaught. As what transpired unfolded, the need was to lay the right cross down, to allow for a hulking George Foreman, mimic the elegant bird in his swan song!

It was as if time slowed down…and allowed for all of this to take shape as innumerable flashbulbs record the time capsule for all of us boxing fans to enjoy. Brutality in boxing there is; beauty with Ali as the “concerto maestro”, there is too!

Maybe not the greatest, but certainly brutal. I was amazed Morrison ever got back in the ring!

Nice ATG one there.At one point in the third round Morrison landed a three punch combo that I'm convinced would have staggerd bad the very best of heavyweights.Uppercut ,left hook brutal....Mercer had a cro-mag cranium.

the bobbing & weaving on the stool

I'd have to mention the MM Hagler KO of Tommy Hearns, as one of the best I've ever seen.

He knocked Hearns cold even before the guy hits the ground. I guess it must've been one of those neck-snapping varieties that move the brain a cent thick, triggering an immediate unconscious state.

Got to be one of the most brutal KO in a big fight thanks to some awful refing.

Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini vs Duk Kho Kim.

There's one that's brutal! The Korean fighter even died. I'm sure he did not intend to cement it with death, for its acclaim tho'. It destroyed Ray Mancini forever, unable to go all out in any of his succeeding fights, with that stigma hanging on his head.

I never saw a Ken Norton fight before. I see exactly what went wrong there. Norton got in the ring.

Brutal indeed. Painful to see. I'm not sure of this should be in the category of best knockout or worst knockout. A 38 year old and well past it Norton, defenceless at the end, takes a few shots too many from a heavy banger before the ref finally jumps in.

I had a personal beef with this fight.No I wasn't born yet but when I watched all the hype and all of Cooney's earlier fight's Ken Norton was commentating and every single fight Cooney was in Norton bashed him and said some nasty racial s**t. Ala Holmes in there fight. Nobody put a gun to Norton's to get in the ring that night hell he thought nothing of Cooney but he was a great white hope who had been carried as later HBO would try to make clear with the legendary night's episode. All I can say is he disposed of Norton, Jimmy Young who beat Foreman, Ron Lyle, John Dino Dennis who was a very good fighter people forget about.
