    The best knockouts with no major title involved. I wanna get back to making boxing videos and was thinking about this, since my last boxing video contained 40 of the best knockouts with a title involved.

    The first that comes to mind for me is Charles - Satterfield. Beautiful left-right-left sequence.

    The OP asked for examples in which no MAJOR titles were involved, so I'd say that still fits.

    Another lower level HW example would be Bobby Quarry's KO of David Kilgour. Absolutely brutal KO that left Kilgour out for several minutes.

    I remember reading somewhere that Mike Tyson knocking out Marvis Frazier looked like Marvis feel asleep while giving head.

    James Toney knocking out Jason Robinson with a beautiful left hook

    Norton - Stephens
    Witherspoon - Ecklund
    McCall - Akinwande (a really underrated one, and a damn tight one punch KO)
    Mercer - Scott (I believe Brian Scott is the second man Ray knocked out of the ring, he knocked Steele out and onto the ringside tables too, but I think the Scott KO is more brutal.)
    Liston - Westphal

    Keep em coming. I didn't mean for this to be a mainly heavyweight affair, but there's a lot more heavy punchers at the lower level of heavyweight than there is in any other weight class.

    For the video I'll also only be using one knockout from every fighter- So for Tua, I'd only use either his knockout of Ruiz or Moorer, not both.

    I believe you were speaking of Mercer's KO of Jeff Pegues.

    Good call on Witherspoon-Ecklund BTW. Totally forgot about that one.

    Thunder's quick KO of Crawford Grimsley was another very good one.

    You're right- Just watching him run up to throw that last right is rough. I had a feeling it was Pegues, but I got ****ed over by my brain.

    The Grimsley KO is a good pick, I hadn't seen it before you mentioned it. The cameraman didn't even get to zoom out, lol.

    Talking about Page... This was a really good one. He looks like a bigger, more loose Walcott when taking down Tillis.

    Shavers - Ellis
    Jackson - Drayton
    Duran - Cuevas (I'd probably use that knockdown where Duran throws Pipino onto the turnbuckle, just looks great)
    Cooper - DeWitt

    Does anybody know who Patterson is knocking out in the first bit of this video? I looked hard for the name of the guy a while ago but don't remember. Most highlight reels with this KO don't list names.

    This is a good one from Jackson. Non-title fight as well....
