    If Valuev physically rips Haye's head off, is that a KO or a TKO?

    What if Haye still runs around the ring like an headless chicken then? I think it would have to be a tko.

    What should the ref do? Counting to 10 is pointless, so you just stop the fight. So is that a KO or TKO?

    Removal of head is not a legal boxing tactic, so he'd at least lose a point.
    The subsequent tearing off of any other appendeges would certainly result in a DQ,
    a fine, and a reprimand from the boxing commision. Kind of like Tyson-Holyfield II.

    What if the head comes off as a result of a very powerful punch?

    The referee would have to ask the severed head if he wished to continue, and if not, or he got no answer ,it would be a TKO.
    But...if the rest of the body fell, and was counted out, thats a KO.
