    And why.maybe for brutality,maybe perfectly timed or maybe the significance of the punch in terms of achieving a historic win.

    Marciano KOing Walcott. Also love Lewis KOing Rahman and Douglas KOing Tyson.

    Yer douglas on Tyson is definitely a contender and foreman vs moored has to be up there. Pac on natron was also brutal to be fair as much of a disappointment it was to see hatton get ktfo.

    I got to go with Robinson vs Fullmer. A significant fight being it was a rematch and the timing of that left hook was extraordinary. Big George KO of Moorer with that right hand. Oh and Tommy Hearns devastating right hand that flattened Duran was awesome.

    Too many to choose from!!!!

    Some of mine!


    One that springs to mind is (and i love duran) Thomas Hearn's Right hand KOing Duran!

    Joe Fraziers left hook putting Ali on his arse

    Ray Robinsons Left Hook he used to throw whilst going backwards

    Ali Putting down Foreman

    Micky Wards Left Hook to the Body

    the list goes on and on and on

    Marciano's KO of Jersey Joe. All the force of that cannon of a right hand with the perfect body leverage added with the fact that Walcotts face/body was turning right into the punch. Picture perfect.

    I have to agree with this. After all Ali was the Greatest & that punch dropped him like a ton of bricks. Its just too bad he got off the canvas before a 10 count!
