When was the last time someone was knocked down by a jab in a heavy title fight ?

Don't think so. And despite what anyone may say about Ocasio, that mas a monster jab.

 

James Toney got dropped by a jab from Sam Peter in their second fight. But that wasn't a title fight.

 

Not a title fight but Iron Mike Tyson shotgun Jab to Julius Francis in 2000 towards the end of the 1st round.

 

Wlad hit Barrett with a jab that turned Barrett's knees to jelly for a second as he stumbled down and backwards. Wasn't a title fight though nor a knockdown.

 

Austin vs. Solis a few months back. That was for some local title though.

 

@Unforgiven: Are you predicting something like multiple jab knockdowns, Douglas-Williams style? I know it wasn't a title fight, but it's my favourite example.

 

Valuev vs Barrett in 2006

Tyson used his "up-jab" in the first fight of this video, I love this punch

Don't know about heavyweight, but Cotto has scored a few knockdowns with his jab (Clottey, Gomez). Knock downs from jabs tend to be more of a balance issue than actually because someone is hurt

 

Only knockdown I remember from a job was when Cotto put down Gomez, obviously not at heavyweight

 

:thumbsup

Completely agreed. :deal

 

if you count the WBO Vitali KO'd Hide with a jab

he landed a Jab and the right missed and Hide was down and done

 

Cotto dropped Clottey with a jab 2
