    I have seen the leonard -benitez fight numerous times. Never seen a defensive display like WB that night. How the heck did he get knocked down by the jab?

    I recall Delahoya knocking Fernando Vargas down pretty good with a jab. I could be mistaken

    It was very funny!My father was on vacation in Italy with my grandparents and when they watched they laughed so hard that they wake up neighbors!Weird thing is that when they came back few days after that war in Yugoslavia started!
    My father told me this:
    Foreman:Hi!
    Gerry:Hi!
    Foreman:How are you?
    Cooney:I am fine!
    Foreman:Ok,here is uppercut for you boy!
    And Foreman just walked like nothing happened!

    Michael Watson knocked out Nigel Benn with a jab.
    Simon Brown's destruction of Terry Norris began with a first-round knockdown off a jab.

    Benitez was a little bit chinny underneath that amazing defensive exterior.

    You've done it. It's on here. But it's not the weird first KD, for anyone who watches the beginning and then misses the end. Near the end, it's there in slow motion when he does it.

    Great quote by Sugar Ray after that fight. " No one makes me miss like that"

    He couldn't believe he couldn't hit him when he was right in front of "me" or something of that nature.

    I think Bruno dropped a couple of fighters with.his jab early in his career.
