    It happens more often than people think actually. The current pound for pound number 1 was knocked down for more than 10 seconds with a jab (although he was allowed to continue).

    In other combat sports such as MMA and kickboxing jab KO's are quite commonplace.

    Yes, I've seen a few jab KO's in MMA, but never a jab KO boxing. Some jab KD's, but never a clean cut one jab knock-out. Thanks for those clips. Good stuff. From what I watched.
