    Duran's 'Timber' face first against Tommy still makes me laugh (sorry Roberto)

    Meekins from the Kawoya fight. Just for the circumstances. For those who have not seen it, watch from around 6:30:

    That Duran KO was priceless. Slow-mo in real time.

    When Broner went down the second time during the Maidana fight. He got hit and turned into a noodle.

    Trevor Berbick getting Koed by Tyson and Judah getting KOed by Tszyu are both funny for obvious reasons.

    Not necessarily the knock down that’s funny, but Hearns holding on for dear life against Kinchen was pretty funny.

    Yes, Tommy at that time was Bambi on ice when even clipped.


    I did like the smug grin on his face, when caught by Hagler as he danced back, and then the delayed reaction kicked in and Marvin was right there in front of him...

    Christy Martin-Bethany Payne (epic chicken dance, mocked by Martin)
    Dariusz Michalczewski-Mark Prince
    Michael Brodie-Neil Swain
    Timmy Austin-Paul Lloyd (doesn't help if you look a bit simple to begin with)
    Mauricio Martinez-Esham Pickering (10 points for the swan dive)
    Frank Bruno-Jumbo Cummings (Bruno KTFO yet his body forgot to fall)
    Jimmy Thunder-Crawford Grimsely (trying to jab at the officials whilst on his back KTFO)
    Mike Hunter-Jimmy Thunder (slapstick KO)
    Gerry Cooney-Kenny Norton
    Michael Sprott-Fraudley Harrison (GOAT KO)

    Any time Danny Williams or Amir Khan get wobbled or dropped.

    There are literally endless cases of Brits getting their glass jaws hilariously shattered.

    The knockdown of Victor Galindez against Marvin Pops Johnson. I liked Galindez but have to admit that the knockdown looked like he was flying back, poor Victor, it was discovered later that he had suffered a fractured jaw.

    The Hembrick knockout, which we've all seen, is hilarious. But the funniest bit to me is right where this video should start, just as he is gonna go down for the first time his body position looks almost identical to one of the ways that the opponents fall down in Mike Tyson's Punchout. If you are old enough to have played the game you should recognize what I mean

    Not on film but as far as I know but I have seen a person wet themselves after being hit in the solar plexus- right their in the ring during sparring.

    I believe that Alexis Arguello struck an opponent to the body and made him soil his trunks.

    Let’s just say the guy I knew never came back to the gym- It would be an honour however to have shared the ring with Arguello regardless of the outcome.

    There is this one too that I am surprised to have not seen. Marquez has been beating up Robbie Peden rather handily throughout the whole of the bout, some of it to the body and just prior to the bell ending the 10th round he gets a pretty good shot to the solar plexus in. Peden walks to the stool, sits down, and promptly throws up bloody water and stomach juice which ends the fight immediately via corner stoppage.
