    Hearns against Shuler I think (fight after Hagler) his best single punch KO

    Some that stand out for me: Walcott knocking out Charles in the 7th with a left hook/uppercut.

    Witherspoon knocking Weaver out with a single right hand.

    Tyson destroying Botha with one short right hand.

    Lewis knocking out Rahman in the rematch (the first punch didn't really land).

    Although it was technically not one punch (neither was Marciano vs Walcott), Ruddock vs Dokes was brutal.

    Samuel Peter vs Jeremy Williams was pretty brutal as well, just the sound of it.

    Marciano Walcott was 1 punch, sure Marciano landed the left shortly after, but the right hand put Walcott out. Walcott was going to be counted out with or with out the left hand follow up.

    Julian Jackson vs. Buster Drayton, where Jackson points his fist up and down as Drayton goes straight down like a tree.

    Hilarious.

    George throwing actual "combinations" ?

    That is an oxymoron by definition .

    Roy Jones Jr vs Art Serwano.

    Jones throws a looping overhand right that starts at his right thigh and lands on Serwano's temple, knocking his legs stiff and sending him to the canvas and into an horrific eye-rolling convulsion.

    It was a true 1 -punch KO, too as it was not set up by any other punches.

    Check out Foreman Cooney, serious combo on the 1st KD.

    I think Foreman KO Moore went: Jab, Straight Right (Moorer groggy), immediately followed by: Jab, Straght Right (Moorer down for the count)

    Besides the ones that everyone knows about, like Marciano-Walcott, Robinson-Fullmer, Foster-Tiger and Foster-Quarry, one of my favorites was that sweet, left hook knockout drop that Mike McCallum landed on Donald Curry. I taped it back in '87 and still enjoy looking at it to see what it's like to see a real pro like McCallum so effortlessly step in there and end matters with a perfect punch. It didn't seem at the time to be so devastating a punch, but it was just perfect! It was so clinical and precise, like an artist's signature on a masterpiece.
