    Either during a fight to claim a title or a title defense, what are some of the best unknown world championship knockouts?
    Something like Callejas - Stecca II.

    Betulio Gonzalez vs Shogi Oguma IV doesn't get nearly the love that it should.

    I just went to watch the match, and the knockout seems a bit odd. Was it just from exhaustion, or am I not seeing the punch? It kinda just seemed like Oguma fell over and couldn't get back up.

    Check out the replay at the end. It's from a slightly different angle and shows Belutio landing a short right hand as Oguma ducks in. Catches him on the chin and causes him to pitch forward.

    I saw the short right hand before, but didn't see it catching Shoji until you see that replay shot. Much appreciated.
    This is definitely going in, and hopefully I can bring this fight to more people with the video I'm doing.
