I can't remember if it stopped the fight, but I love that picture perfect counter left hook by Donald Curry to put down Milton McCrory hard.

"In history" is a tall order, but for the last 10 years, Pacquiao was involved in two of the best ones I recall at the top level, both on the giving end with Hatton, and the receiving end with Marquez.

These are not KOs of where the fighter on the other end had a blackout, but these one punch finishes are always memorable for me. Tarver's punch on Roy was so shocking and Tzyu's one punch ending of Zab was super memorable as well.

The two that come to my mind were technically a 1-2 punch combo but in both cases, Foreman/Moorer and Lewis/Rahman 2, the jab was not so much a punch as a screen.

Donaire vs Montiel

Didn’t end the fight, but I always loved the way Montiel sizzled on the canvas after going down. The fight ended seconds later

So classic that somebody mentioned Zuri Lawrence. I've actually created him recently on a Boxing game, and am playing as him in fights that go the distance one after the other. :lol:

I wondered to myself if I'm one of the only people on Earth who would play as dudes like this just for the hell of it :lol:

I genuine struggle as him too. Barely got a .500 record.

Have botched it slightly though as I've accidentally knocked out a few guys with counter punches. Zuri would've never done that :lol:

Yeah he was a KTFO artist at 168... drama too since he was a little chinny...

The "Is he dead" type of KO you are referring to was vs Francisco Mora

Can't find it and the gif i had made doesn't work anymore...

Beautiful left hook, it landed so quickly and so short it almost seemed animated. Surprisingly McCroy beat the count but was then flattened by a right hand.

McCallum's left hand that put Curry to sleep, was sweet too. Julian Jackson's left hook that stopped Buster Drayton was pretty bad ass as well.

Some of these are really good. Jackson's over Graham might be the single best turnaround shit in the history of boxing. Graham was killing him up until that point.

Another old school favorite of mine was Ray Robinson's on Gene Fullmer.

I don't know. This thread brought back some memories.

In more recent memory, probably Martinez on Williams.

Canelo nearly removed Khan's head from his torso.
