Jorge Luis Maysonet/Hugh Kearney is as brutal a knockout as you'll ever see. 10 seconds into the fight, if that, Maysonet lands a shot that has the ref call the fight off immediately. Bad part of this is that Kearney was a undefeated prospect fighting in his own backyard. Maysonet finished his career with a 100% knockout ratio, and no fight highlighted how hard he hit better then this one. He was also the only fighter to ever knock down the iron chinned Aaron Davis as well.
Sugar Ray Leonard's last punch against Davey "Boy" Green. He looked unconcious before he hit the canvas! Awesome!
I think the LaLonde knockout looked worse. :shock: Not a happy ending for Donny considering he was abused as a child.
The reason it's less discussed is that Donald was not en route to a wide UD loss as McCallum was, which lends the latter fight most of its drama.
I would've gone down from the first bolo punch Leonard threw. The last round was a classic: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVIgj_k9H64[/ame]
True. Then again, McCallum had more than just a punch and after only 4 rounds, however good Curry was looking, it was still too early to surmise that McCallum needed to KO him to win. It was dramatic though.
Yes Castro and Jackson at the time had a lot more class than the Benn who fought Logan, Benn was just a street fighter who was hurt...
Kali Meehan's 1-punch KO of Williamson was pretty brutal, and also just downright strange. It was like a karate chop more than a straight right hand, and landed on the forehead.
Lopez/Malvarez: Little Red was getting his ass handed to him, and then all of a sudden, BANG -- fight over. Watch the left that hits Malvarez on the point of the chin, the rest of the punches either did not land, or did not matter. - [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdaVSVefmck&feature=related[/ame]
