    In terms of perfect execution, Curry v McCrory. That left hook was phenomenal.

    Duran vs Moore is one I can't believe I forgot.

    Moore vs Marciano as well.

    Arguello v Mancini at the end of the 12th round. That right hand was sheer beauty.

    James Toney's 12th round knockdown against Jirov. He was told he needed a knockout to win and went after Jirov with everything he had. The left hook to the body that buckled Jirov was a thing of beauty.

    On the flip side, Jirov willed himself back to his feet and finished the fight. Bbn with guys were completely spent at the final bell.

    I suppose Donaire vs Montiel counts because Mora let the fight keep going for a second after Montiel got up.

    Ribalta was so offended by that uppercut.

    Trinidad vs Vargas.
    That first knockdown just came out of the blue and very early. Vargas had never been down before. Some devastating KDs late in the fight before the actual final KO.
    For me this fight is the epitome of being brutally and systematically broken.

    Tyson-Ruddock 1 *#Knockdown 2* (the first knockdown was clearly a slip but whatever).

    Ribalta had a hell of a chin and was very well conditioned

    I don't even know he could've gone up from that uppercut.
