    hopkins vs trinidad.... first time he (trinidad) was ever dominated, put down and KO'd, he was also in his prime.... foreman and lampleys comments said it all

    the way he did it was superb... uppercut to block trinidads hook then land a hook himself

    I know this fight didn't bare the significance of some of the ones you guys have mentioned, but D. Jeffries KO of Mo' Harris (I think it was 98' or 99's ring KO of the year) was nasty brutal. Harris had Jeffries on ***** street trying to finish him off and chased him into the corner when "****in bang" Jeffries landed a shot on Harris that sent his mouthpiece into the cheap seats. I have seen this on youtube but can't find it anymore. It was a HBO fight and Merchant and Lampley went wild.

    In terms of impressiveness and significance, Robinson-Fullmer 2.

    Marciano-Walcott and Foster-Tiger are up there.

    Ruddock-Dokes is my favorite.

    Nunn-Kalambay was very impressive, as wll.

    The greatest KO of all time is Ali's phantom punch... probably the most well known KO punch of all time.

    Also, Rocky Marciano over JJW! Short, compact right hand

    That was as sweet a left hook as you could imagine , and when you view it from the side with Tak rolling his eyes back it looks as devastating as any ko .

    I actually agree, I love that Tua-Ruiz KO it's outstanding. Up there with the best of them IMO.

    I'd mention Rahman-Lewis, also an extraordinary KO.
