Duran, Pacquiao, Jones Jr. Williams & Hatton: Which KO was the most brutal?

Not Paul Williams. His eyes were still open, he was trying to move when he was down.
Martinez did not use as much leverage as Marquez.
Pacquiao needed smelling salts to wake up and was asleep for minutes, legend has it that he is still sleeping today.
Marquez's KO shocked me to the core. I could feel it from England.

 

I could see an argument for any of them. All were terribly brutal. If I had to choose one, I'd probably go with Williams, who I really thought might've been dead for a minute. I've never seen another fighter knocked out with his eyes open.

 

Williams

ktfo6

Duran

Hatton

Jones

 

All roads lead to KTFO6

 

:deal

 

Pacquiao, since he's the only one from that list who actually went to sleep

Duran was crawling on all fours, clearly conscious

Jones was moving his hands, eyes wide open, clearly conscious

Hatton and Williams had their eyes open, blinking, semi conscious at least

Pac got iced, KTFO unconscious, for a moment people thought he was dead

so all roads lead to KTFO6, indeed

 

What's sad is when I saw Roy's name up there, the first thing I thought of was "which time?" Tarver, Johnson, and Levedev were all nasty.

 

I think the fact that one of those KO's actually has its own nickname says a lot lol

 

I say Hearns, as brutal as Martinez and Marquez KOs were those punches had an element of luck about them, MArquez because Pacquiao was falling forward, heels off the floor and fell into it which made it more devastating and Martinez' was a swinger...Hearns' was 100% intended and just a ridiculous straight right on the chin...so Hearns / Duran for me

 

Yeah Jones vs Johnson wasn't a very impressive punch but he was down for ever. I got to see that fight live. When Jones went down we left our seats and started walking out when the count got to about 6. I remember being well on the way out of the building when I looked up at a flatscreen on the wall and seeing him just now being roused.

 

Pacquiao and Williams, I thought both died when it happened.

 

williams easily

 

Williams.

 

I was one of the biggest Paul Williams fans there was...but...

Come on bro. Martinez had no leverage? Williams was trying to get up?

Maybe you've never seen someone instantly die before...but...if you saw Paul get KTFO'd...that's what it looks like.
