    Sorry I didn't mean to go below the belt but you can't deny the sweetness of that knockout.

    Here's another one, When Big George Foreman walked into Gerry Cooney with that uppercut and right hand. That was nasty.:lol:

    It looked amazing but it was the case of using the same move many times in his career and happening to finally pull off a dramatic knockout punch with it. It seems less cunning when you watch it fail a bit. Still, one of the great highlight reel moments of filmed boxing, of course. ...What got censored, by the way? :blood

    Wallcot was a slip-n-counter master. Old school at its best. A lost art in the HW division.

    Have you not seen Bermane Stiverne? ;)

    Yes, Walcott's KO of Charles is one I always think of when I think of the best knockouts I've seen.

    He's ok. Against an opened target in front of him.

    Haye is better countering off the backfoot than BS.

    Walcott could counter you to pieces coming forward and on the move.
