    Sure it must be in there somewhere, dude has wrangled hundreds of beauteous shots. :thumbsup:

    Would take one hours just to scroll through it all. Pitiably, the limitations of Xenforo mean we can only embed five tweets per a post. I'll try and pick out some more of the juiciest cherries.

    I'm honestly really impressed that Luis Federico Thompson hung around for another nine rounds and change after eating that cross from El Feo.

    Pryor ate that shot. He comes away looking better than Arguello did after that landed punch.

    Check out the right hands Ruben Olivares lands on Bobby Chacon at 16:03 and 33:14. Anyone who thinks the man was all left hook needs to think again.

    If we're talking an incredible hard shot the opponent survived and eventually won, look no further than John Mugabi's 25-0 All ko's, some of his opponents prior to his fight with this opponent were tough as nails.
    Mugabi nailed Marvin Hagler with a perfectly timed , full leveraged right uppercut counter right on the point of his chin that snapped his head back like a high speed rear ended car wreck victim.
    A punch so violent it probably ko's 98% percent of the jr.middle/ middleweights that ever lived. And would've killed the average man.
    And Hagler only sneered?
    At that moment watching that fight live all those years ago, I knew that fight was over.....
    It was only the fourth round.

    I have seen a few punches in boxing matches, in my lifetime, where I involuntarily thought "f*** I'm glad that hit him and not me."

    Frazier's left hook versus Quarry almost decapitated him.

    If we're talking Ko blows , look no further than Hearns viscous Ko's of two fighters noted for great chins, along with great skills ( Duran) and great power ( Cuevas)
    Hearn's ko of both of those men considering their legendary status as tough men, should never be overlooked ....
    Hearns had many devastating ko's, but none were as emphatic as Cuevas as Duran.

    I don't think it's restricted to KO blows; at least the author of the original X thread included a good many that weren't fight-ending.

    It's funny how that works, contrary to what you might expect - a lot of KO shots are really nothing to write home about in terms of aesthete, while many that look downright cinematic are just absorbed without even a knockdown.
