    Which are your favourite knockouts by different types of punches? Just 1 allowed per punch.

    Mine off the top of my head:

    1. Favourite right-hand ko: Marciano-Walcott 1

    2. Left hook: Bob Foster-Dick Tiger

    3. Right uppercut : Mike Tyson - Marvis Frazier (i consider the uppercut to have ko'd Marvis, the rest of the punches were unnecessary)

    4. Left uppercut: Povetkin-Whyte

    5. Right hook: Tua-Moorer (probably the best right hook any orthodox heavyweight has ever delivered)

    6. Straight left hand: Moorer-Jirov (shockingly, Moorer ends up twice on my list)

    Jersey Joe Walcott pokes his head into two categories with his flashing, hybrid left hook/uppercut on Ezzard Charles.

    Mickey Ward's bodyshot knockout of Alphonso Sanchez. I typically like a body shot KO preferably a left hook or shovel to the body those require a considerable amount of patience, skill and timing.

    And if you're on the receiving end your body does one of 3 things
    1) collapses
    2) you bend over
    3) your knee comes up

    And you have no control

    Left hand: Manny Pacquiao-Ricky Hatton

    Right hand: Julian Jackson-Herol Graham

    Left hook: Razor Ruddock-Michael Dokes

    Right hook: Frankie Liles-Tim Littles 2

    Left uppercut: Gervonta Davis-Leo Santa Cruz

    Right uppercut: Mike Tyson-Lorenzo Boyd

    Body punch: Roy Jones-Virgil Hill

    This is off the top of my head and it might change a bit if I thought more about it. There’s been a lot of great knockouts. The left uppercut could also be Saad-Mwale or Spinks-M. Johnson

    The Pacquiao-Hatton and Jackson-Graham were sort of overhand punches as opposed to left/right crosses. If they were more typical crosses, KOs like Mike Tyson-Frans Botha and Antonio Tarver-Roy Jones 2 come to mind.
