    Surprised no one's mentioned this famous one yet

    I pick Super Joe vs Byron Mitchell

    It was a vicious shot but we've seen fighters get up from heavier KDs

    This is what I mean when I talk about Brit Level

    It was the first KD of his career but due to Brit Level it was instinctive for him to respond in the fashion he did

    No running or holding or trying to survive

    He stood his ground mano e mano and fired back right back

    And had Mitchell on the canvas within seconds of hauling himself off it

    Khan getting up from the first KD against Prescott was kinda impressive.

    He did well to get up but he was in no state to carry on. Prescott landed some bombs that night.

    That was kind of a flash knockdown.

    It's not just the shot itself but what Buster ends up later accomplishing. Well technically it was 13 seconds down but history is a *****.

    Thompson vs. Price II.

    Thompson was lying against the ropes and at the count of 7 or 8 it still looked he wouldn't get up.

    And the fight was in the UK, still pretty surprised there hasn't been a British stoppage.

    The liver shot Khan got Maidana with - when he went down I thought it was all over.

    Huge heart as that must have been agony

    Exactly what I was going to say. Fury looked out cold. That recovery was amazing.

    This was actually a perfectly timed left from our 'enery against Ali.

    Had it been earlier in the round I think Ali could have been in real trouble. The bell really played it's part that night.

    Coopers left reminds me of povetkin's against Whyte. Both great left hands timed to perfection, Only difference being was Ali got up.....
