How many one punch knockouts/stoppages did Tyson have?

His last win over Clifford Etienne was one right hand as well.

 

Carl Williams got dropped with a single left hook, ref stopped it when he got up but had glassy eyes.

Marvis Frazier was done after the first right uppercut, but got hit with some follow up shots.

Michael Jack Johnson got dropped twice, but it was one shot that ended it. A body shot dropped him, then a right hand to the head that ended the fight.

Mark Young got taken out by a single uppercut that you can’t really see land due to the angle of the video.

Lorenzo Boyd was taken out by Tyson’s right hook to the body, right uppercut combo.

Henry Tillman got stopped by an overhand right high on the head.

 

Those are not all one-punch KOs.

You’re basically saying a countout is a one-punch KO? Spinks was already down once from a body shot when he went down, for instance.

 

The OP mentionned KO/stoppages losses. So I believe he talked on a broad sense.
What's your vision of a one-punch KO ?

 

I’ve never heard of the term ‘one-punch stoppage’ before but I assume in that Fighter A hits a guy and Fighter B is out of it completely staggering around and they stop it. I think Teofilo Stevenson may have had a few of those.

To me, a one-punch KO comes without any beating a guy down or already putting him down … when that happens, the last punch is an accumulation. By that definition, most KOs are one-punch.

What’s not, to me, a one-punch KO: “It was the right hand that put him down … after the jab that set it up … after he knocked him down twice the round before … and a few seconds after he staggered him.”

Botha is a one-punch KO. Julian Jackson had a few, Graham to name one. Wilder did it to Szpilka and I think a few others. Generally the guy who gets KO’d isn’t in distress and hasn’t been beaten down at the point a single punch lands and takes him out.

 

Yes, I see your point and while true, I find it a little bit restrictive.
From this point of view, there's not much true one-punch KO. For example, Klitschko terrific left hook KO of Pulev is not a true one-punch KO for you right ?

 

I don’t remember that punch, but, yes true one-punch KOs are exceedingly rare. For a reason — it’s hard, involves power and skill and usually a bit of luck and the other guy is trying to not get KO’d.

To me, that’s like saying ‘full-court buzzer-beater basketball shots aren’t common enough, so we shouldn’t require the clock to be running all the way down and anything up to say, half-court, should count.’

I saw a highlight reel of ‘one-punch knockouts’ and one of them was a clean 1-2. The jab landed, the right landed. That’s a combination, not one punch. It cannot, by definition, be a ONE-punch KO if it’s a combination.

 

Fair enough.
I agree too about the 1-2 situation.

 

Ok I see, I will delete my post because it includes KO that didn't match the situation you are describing.

 

Just nitpicking here, but Tubbs seemed to be hurt by the right hook-right uppercut combo just before the KO.
