    That African giraffe skin vendor that fought Jessie Vargas, he was doing some type of voodoo tribal dance and got clocked multiple times.

    Roy Jones Jr and Toney fight.. Jones lowered his hands as he did, Toney copied and Jones caught him with a hook which sent him to the floor. Well, I don't think it was ruled a knockdown but it should have been because he was clinging on to the ropes.

    I'd say the Mayorga one kind of worked, it made for one of the most exciting moments I've seen in a boxing match. ****ING BALLS OF STEEL. Too bad it didn't pay off in the end or it'd have been Legendary status.

    The Nate Campbell one.

    Vinny Panzienza vs Roy Jones Jr - teach him to act cocky lol

    It was ruled a knockdown but imo shouldn't have been. Was more of a push punch.

    Oh really? Wasn't sure if it was or wasn't, I'll have to watch it again.

    Pac vs Morales 1

    First time Pacquaio (who was used to steam rolling people) clocked Morales, Erick smacked him back and chased him across the ring

    Maybe I'm on crack and its like you think and they didn't call it but Im pretty sure they gave him a count lol.

    I still never believed it was a legit knockdown. He hit with a left hook while lunging and kind of rammed Toney with his body, Toney never actually went down but I believe his glove touched the canvas as he was trying to get his balance.

    He was really cocky about that though, I guess with his hands up stuff but not like a taunt imo.

    On a side note that, epic performance by Morales.

    Does Danny McIntosh's clowning in the fight vs Thierry Karl count ?
    Taking a bit of a beating while taunting Karl and occasionally winging out a hail mary shot, and then eventually as Karl tired he landed that shot, amazing stuff.

    He got clocked and lost his senses, he didn't choose to do it.
