    Knocked out with 1 punch.

    It probably damages your ego and pride than a big beatdown knowing that your 'chin' will be called into question but in the long run its more benficial to your health to be knocked out by 1 punch then get punched hundred of times in the head.

    Which can kill you.

    I'd rather choose the later rounds to prove I have the ability to survive longer.

    Exact deevel. Lennox can confirm it.

    Healthly (don't know if the word exists) speaking I would rather get KO'd by one punch and recover from it than beaing destroyed physically (and mentally) in a beating.

    one punch KO is better for a persons health, but getting stopped in late rounds is better for a persons ego

    I don't think the ego thing would work that way for me, Thunder. I think I could convince myself that my opponent got lucky in a one punch KO, but taking a sustained beating over several rounds and getting stopped late would leave no doubt that the guy was bette than me.

    Basically, would you rather be Amir Khan when he got KO'd by Presscot,
    or would you rather be Arturo Gatti when he got whipped by Mayweather?
