Fails to mention that he hooked up with the mob and things started turning around. Even when he lost title shot after title shot, kept getting...
I don’t remember that punch, but, yes true one-punch KOs are exceedingly rare. For a reason — it’s hard, involves power and skill and usually a...
I’ve never heard of the term ‘one-punch stoppage’ before but I assume in that Fighter A hits a guy and Fighter B is out of it completely...
