    I agree. Many of Julian Jackson's fights go under this category.

    I'm sure there are many others that are as dramatic as this, but I watched it live and, being a Brit and a Herol Graham fan I can honestly say that i've never been "Clamped up" by a single shot so quickly in my life!!:). Julian Jackson had scary power!!! Jackson suffered eye injuries (Detached retinas?) during the course of his career didn't he? Well I hope he is on top-form! I know "Bomber" Graham is doing great and I hope Jackson is also.

    Beat me to it, Tate was winning everyround before Weaver put him to sleep.

    Another one was Alfonso Sanchez and Mickey Ward, Sanchez was beating the crap out of him and winning every round until Ward ended it with a body shot. And a few of Danny Lopezs fights too. Alexis Arguello knocking out Bill Costello comes to mind, just as the broadcaster(i forgot who maybe Ferdie pacheco) was talking crap about Arguello he ends it right after.

    The most shocking thing with Jackson vs Graham is that the fight would have been stopped at the end of round 4 due to Jackson hardly being able to see with either eye.

    Graham was absolutely slaughtering him - he wasn't just schooling him and making him miss, he was beating him JJ up.

    Herol blew it against McCallum and Brewer as well, shame really :-(

    Julian Jackson and Terry Norris n although the fight was over in the 2nd round,that was the first time i had seen Norris and I was like Wow this kid is good he looked like he was to fast for Jackson, and then BOOM! Thats all she wrote. I knew that this kid was still gonna be champ someday just not that day.

    saw the fight today i think as i remembered you could only really give smith two rounds at most .at 1min 17sec approx in the last round smith lands a left which hurts bruno and after taking more shots mostly lefts bruno ko'd after a right hand followed by a final left .so as the thread says 1 punch literally changing a fight i feel i was right to include this fight in my original poss .bruno was miles ahead and was on his way to a win when smith landed the left which changed the fight and set bruno up to be ko'd :good

    Great choice, Tommy's body work was immense until that punch.
