    Whether it’s a one punch KO or a violent combinations of punches on the ropes. Which fight do you think had the most brutal finish with the fighters back against the ropes? You can also include a stoppage where a fighter was knocked out of the ring.

    First that comes to mind.

    Frank Bruno was knocked out few times on the ropes. Usually he was sitting of laying on the ropes having no clue who and where he is and what just has happened

    Thomas Hearns stumbles back to the ropes
    and Hagler's leaping right hand catches him
    flush.
    Alexis Arguello's brilliant wrecking of
    Andy Ganigan with a viscous body
    and head combo that left him withering
    on the canvas, like a hot spear
    was run thru his side.
    Wilfredo Benitez one shot
    stoppage of Maurice Hope.
    Surprising power display from
    the "Bible of boxing".
    Aaron Pryor unleashing an avalanche of
    clean hard punches on Arguello in
    their 1st fight. in the 14th and last
    rd.
    Again Aaron Pryor this time trapping
    Julio Valdez on the ropes, nailing him
    with a overhand right, immediately followed
    by a bolo right uppercut, One of the more
    creative and intuitive combo's I've seen .
    Many many others....

    Pernell Whitaker against Hurtado was brutal.

    Saad-Johnson 2 is one of my favorites

    Saad was bleeding, tired, and just threw everything he had and stopped Pops to win the title

    Ray Leonard's blitzkrieg of Andy Price.
    Price was thought to be a serious challenge
    for the up and coming Leonard. It was
    thought it would be tough for Ray because
    Price could match his speed.
    But with in one round, and about 20 clean and unanswered punches from Leonard, Price was left looking like he'd been struck by lightning.

    September 23, 1952...Heavyweight title fight between Jersey Joe Walcott and Rocky Marciano...behind on all score cards...decked for the first time in his career...cut and blinded for 4 rounds...having the s**t beat out of him...Marciano throws the best right hand ever in the 13th round...JJW was out cold before he hit the canvas...best punch I've ever seen...and I've seen a lot of them in 60 years!
