    The kd scored by Victor Galindez in his defense against Eddie Mustafa Muhammad...Eddie had just hurt Victor with a body shot against the ropes that clearly bothered Galindez...and in a flash, Victor countered with a right hand that decked Eddie ....it all happened in an instant and showed what a masterful, dangerous counter puncher that VG was.

    RJJ one two that put Reggie Johnson down in round 3 from memory. Lightening!!

    Fury vs Wilder 1 round 12. Simply incredible that Fury reanimated after that.

    Ali vs Frazier round 15. Put an exclamation on one of the greatest fights of all time.

    Marciano vs Walcott 1. That knockdown in round one was a beautifully delivered left hook that Rocky did well to recover so quickly from.

    One of my favorite knock downs, and maybe the craziest in the history of the sport was Pryor vs Kamada
    Never seen anything like that before or since. Just re watched it to make sure my mind wasn't making more of it than it actually was.
    Nope my mind wasn't embellishing, Pryor came out like a wild boar, got caught with a shot, falls ,does a back flip, than charges at Kamada like a pissed off wild boar.
    There's been better fighters than Pryor ( Not many) but I don't remember 1 that was as exciting as he was.
    The "Hawk" was truly one of a kind.

    I was about to type in Toney-Jirov as well bud. Great knockdown!! Jirov was wobbling from side to side at the end of that round and Toney needed a clean shot to connect and he did it.

    Mike Tyson - Jesse Ferguson (classic Tyson bolo punch)
    Roy Jones Jr. - James Toney (chicken fight clowning)
    Bernard Hopkins - Felix Trinidad (perfect, precise counter)

    So many more good ones. Great topic @TipNom !!

    the delayed reaction KD Golota put on Bowe in the 2nd fight...come to think of it, Golota had another brutal KD later in the fight, and Bowe put Golota down with a back alley style beat down midway through at fight...that fight remains one of, if not the most brutal back and forth fight I think I ever seen.

    the KD that KOd Diego Corrales when he rematched with Castillo was pretty sweet.

    everytime Ricky Hatton was ever KD, that guy was such a buffoon...the best was when May got him though and he went face first into the turnbuckle

    another great KD KO was Jersey Walcott landing that flush right on Ezzard Charles....beautiful punch!!

    so many to choose from. those KDs that Rated R guy put on Tim Bradley were ruthless, but Bradley got up and fought like a G

    Zab Judah legitimately put Floyd Mayweather down with a little right counter. It’s wasn’t called and was a flash KD. But still very clearly a KD.
