For my money-this is still the greatest one punch TNT demolition I've ever seen!! (Not just visually--it even SOUNDED explosive-like a bomb detonating!!)
Remember when Rocky was down and his leg was groping for the imaginary canvas? Well, I once watched some piece on the original Rocky movie and Stallone stated that he actually incorporated that sequence into the film when he was dropped by Apollo Creed. Even emulated Graziano's mad dash to get up by clutching the ropes. But the KO was indeed exquisite.
The sound of that punch was worthy of a Mike Tyson KO shot. Tommy was fast but that particular shot was crazy fast - even when you know it’s coming it’s hard to track it’s travel - in an instant, it almost just appears as a glove exploding into Durans’s face. There are some other great KO shots mentioned here but this one is def. hard to beat - helped by the fact that it was captured so beautifully on film. Imagine some of Louis’ KOs captured so squarely and clearly on film…..as well as the accompanying audio…..
