    Fights where this has happened? Only 2 I can think of is Cotto vs Clottey and Kovalev vs Yarde.

    Douglas actually knocks Williams down 3 times with jabs I think.

    Bad stance and balance causes this, a lot of Fury`s jabs had Wilder`s head snapping and leaving him correcting his really bad footing.

    Lennox Lewis debuted with a jab knockout. Pulev stopped two guys with a jab that on the back of many other jabs made them take a knee and give up, basically, the way I remember it. It may have been only one of them but I seem to remember both Dimitrenko and Ustinov went that way against him, then he wobbled Wladimir briefly with a jab in their fight, which seemed to really surprise Wlad, who seemed to go out of his way to not jab with him and just blast the **** out of him instead. Another I can't swear to, but I think Kovalev did this when he broke Agnew's ribs with a jab? I also think Floyd Mayweather Junior got a KD with a jab to the body against Jerry Cooper. Freda "Scoop it like" Silibovsky has done it too but she's left-hand dominant and has very powerful calves.

    Edit: Also, even though I'm completely blanking on who but Cotto, I'm almost certain has done this at least two other times, but with much lower level guys than Clottey, I think. Not Jerry Cooper low, but lower.

    @Bogotazo would probably know this. I think John Brown was one of the other ones. But it's nagging me, I seem to remember he did this three times.

    Leonard dropped Benitez (for the first time) with a jab in their fight. Also, Michael Watson finished Benn off with a thumping jab, albeit Benn was absolutely knackered at that point.

    Sam Peter knocked down Toney with a jab. A combination of Toney being squared up and Peter's brute power. Incidentally, Toney shipped an unholy amount of punishment in that fight. It more or less ruined him at the top level.

    Yes! I also remember it being 3 times. Wasn't one of them Alfonso Gomez?

    The funniest moment in sports the last 40 yrs. Every St. Paddys Day I have a big ass blowout at the farm and have these 2 rounds on every big screen for 24 straight hours. We laugh our asses off at Looney. Good times. I am certain that Looney has been laid out many times by jabs in bathhouses around LONG Island.
