Top 5 Knockouts Ever?? I'm at work just now, will put mine up when I get time. Look forward to seeing anyone else's in the meantime...
Marciano Walcott I Balsilio Demarco II Louis vs pick your choice since most of his finishs were great. Dempsey Willard or Firpo. and Robinson Fullmer II.
#1: Roberto Duran vs Tommy Hearns. Spectacular right hand that knocked out an all time great fighter. Duran had never been sparked like that in his entire career. #2: Cooney vs Norton I rate this one purely on brutality. I rarely hear it get mentioned but Norton took about 3-4 shots to the face whilst he was effectively down on the ropes. Norton didn't know where he was when the referee came over and finally intervened. More brutal than what Foreman did in my opinion. #3: Julian Jackson vs Terry Norris A single right hand and he did it to a great fighter in Terry Norris. The way he landed on his face going down was brutal. #4: Sugar Ray Leonard vs Davey Boy Green Although the opponent wasn't as great, the finish was just as specatacular. A combination that sent Davey Boy on the back foot and then Ray finished him off with a right hand that sent Davey onto the canvas. He remained unmoved for a few minutes. #5: Rocky Marciano vs Joe Walcott He was trailing on the scorecards getting outboxed badly until this happened. Joe didn't move.
Of those ten i'll go for: 1 - Walcott on Charles 2 - Robinson on Fulmer 3 - Patterson on Johnannson 4 - Maricano on Walcott 5 - Lewis on Rahman Those would be my picks.
It's a fantastic video, decent choices and brilliantly made. Bob's KO of Mike Quarry pushes hard for top 5 and certainly top 10 and would have fit nicely into the compilation. Quarry could have been mistaken for dead. Nice caring treatment dropping his head onto the canvas at 3.02 given the state he was in. [YT]UpAuFR0VDKs[/YT]
