    I read an article in 1992 talking about Mike Tyson holding the world record for most 1st round KO`s, at that time he had 21 first round KO`s to his name. Who is credited as having the most 1st round KO`s ever and did Tyson really hold that record at that stage?

    No doubt Shannon Briggs, he has thirty to his credit.

    I believe Peter Maher has held this record for over 100 years.

    Also read Peter Maher’s 1st round ko’s consisted of a series of non-professionals.
