    Barry Michael never hit the canvas from the Australian side of things.

    Floyd Mayweather had one official knockdown when he touched down due to extreme pain from his hands and not a punch. But he legitimately brushed his glove on the canvas from a counter against Zab Judah that the referee somehow missed. So it evens out.

    I could be wrong since he was stopped several times in his career but I don’t think Ediwin Rosario was surprisingly ever floored.

    Gennady Golovkin reportedly has never been floored as an amateur or as a professional That’s over 350 amateur fights and 40+ pro fights. Could still happen as he’s currently still fighting at the age of 38 but as of now has never touched the canvas.

    He goes down in Pat's current Round 2 thread (should be on the front page) against Randall at the 6.53 mark Ken.

    I think you might be right. When he was hurt against Ramirez, Randall and that Japanese dude he was out on his feet but didnt go down. Chavez stopped him on basically a mercy stoppage as his face was a swollen mass. But he didnt go down.

    Damn youre right. Its a flash knockdown. Then he dumps Randall near the end of the round. Randall looked hurt but recovered well between rounds. Randall dominates except for the knockdown.

    Jofre was knocked down against Jose Legra. Ross was also dropped against Ceferino Garcia.

    Don’t think I remember seeing Mikkel Kessler getting dropped.

    Green. Not totally 100% clean but he'd been stunned by a big right hand and ended up messily down from the follow up.
