    Thought i'd just check before I mentioned Bent, you beat me to it ! didn't he have a brain injury that forced his retirement ?

    my favorite one hit wonder is john michael johnson, an old personal friend whom i used to kick it with in high school. this fight was probably the most thrilling boxing moment ive ever shared with close friends. we probably jumped around screaming for 5 minutes straight when bam bam pulled this off.

    Giovani Segura also comes to mind.
    Two KO victories over a fading, but still capable Ivan Calderon put Segura on most peoples P4P lists. Yet the moment he stepped up in weight against Viloria, he got completely dominated. (Segura was the favorite heading in)

    And what else has he done? KOd Hernan Marquez and Sonny Boy Jaro.

    Fun to watch. Thanks for the flashback. And Big George, the only fighter among the commentators, had it exactly right while Lampley and Merchant didn't have a clue.

    :thumbsup: we were cursing the hell out of merchant for not giving our boy his propers. to be perfectly honest, although i never dared say it, i didnt believe flaco (his nickname among friends) was going to pull it off, poison looked the beast back then.

    It would probably be Micheal Bentt....Douglas was already noted as a decent fighter before Tyson,he beat McCall and a few others. Bentt knocked out Morrison( though lucky) and was never heard from again really...at least Douglas got a Holyfield going away party. lol
