    My guy Thomas Hearns has a good knockout record. Although he was a boxer, so the guys he didn't beat he outboxed. Mike Tyson comes to mind.

    I think knocking out Joe Louis, Archie Moore, Ezzard Charles and Jersey Joe Walcott is pretty impressive - those guys combined had 481 fights between them and suffered a grand total 22 kayoes combined - Marciano accounted for 5 of those 22 - that's pretty impressive numbers at the very least

    I think it is Fitzsimmons with Guys like Dempsey, Hall, Creedon, Maher, Choynski, Corbett, Sharkey, Ruhlin.

    But i have to say, Langford is right up there as well.
