    Ike Williams-Beau Jack was extremely brutal and luckily did not end in tragedy



    I always liked the finish in Leonard-Lalonde

    Never seen the Ecklund one before. Really brutal.

    Cooney-Norton was brutal too.

    Corrales-Castillo 1 is one of my favorites, given everything that preceded it.

    Trinidad-Campas is certainly among the best all time against the rope finishes.

    Not the BEST “Rope Finishes” Ever, But Jose Ramirez vs Maurice Hooker and Tank vs Ricardo Nunez Not Only Apply, They Occurred the SAME Night!…

    It just hit me that we forgot about the most famous and best against the ropes KO:

    Marciano-Walcott 1

    Not the best example, but a decent recent example, especially considering the scorecards and the fact that it was the last round.

    I'd add Jones-Brannon. The final combo Roy finished off Brandon with against the ropes was awesome.

    I think might have been Roy at his absolute peak. His Cleveland Williams fight.

    Circa 94-96 was Jones at his absolute apex, though his prime really lasted from 94-00.
