What are you favourite examples of knocked the fuck outs? To be contrasted with mere knockouts, mind you. I'm not talking about simple knockouts like Ali-Foreman, Watson-Benn, Tszyu-Judah...or even Hagler-Hearns Nah....I'm talking about when fighters are knocked THE FUCK out! I'm talking... 1. Jackson-Graham 2. Tua-Ruiz 3. Ruddock-Dokes 4. Pettaway-Brown 5. Patterson-Johannson 2 I'm talking when fighters were knocked OUT OUT OUT! Share with us some of the best examples of this.
Ashley Sexton vs Prince Naz Wannabe Usman Ahmed <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/k7Sj6QxrTI8&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/k7Sj6QxrTI8&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> Sorry, but the intro is very necessary. In the immortal words of Cedric the Entertainer...."the most knocked-out in the history of knocked out-of-ness"
hmmmm.......... I agree that it meets the definition as laid out in my opening post...but personally i wouldn't have included it. The KO seemed, to me, more about jones quitting like a bitch after he hit the canvas...than a tremendous punch from Glen Johnson.
I thought Jones' head bouncing off thecanvas had a greater effect than Johnson's shot, which didn't look too devastating in itself
Accoding to Sly, Jones slammed his head to the floor deliberately to get out of the fight. Jefferson-Harris
Roy was on the ground for 5 minutes. It was at least 2 before he could open his eyes. That sounds like out out out to me.
Tyson-Marvis Frazier I think it was Xplosive who said, "It looked like Marvin was giving head and fell asleep!" :: Butterbean vs Mike Plopchek.
That was sweet. To para-phrase Cedrick once again..."grimsley was so knocked out he didn't even know he was knocked out"
His eyes were closed before he hit the floor. Homey was snoring. The canvas helped keep him in la la land.
It's the second concussion that many referees worry most about---that being the concussion from the fighter's head hitting the canvas. Roy hit the canvas hard after being outhustled and swarmed.
Hatton-Manny is the most memorable KTFO in a high profile fight in recent memory. Poor Ricky was literally knocked out zed's in centre ring. Also agreed on Graham-Jackson. Herol was spark out long before he hit the canvas. MTF

That Serwano Ko reminds me of Tim Witherspoon against Anders Ecklund (sp), Ecklund looked like he was having a stroke - one side of his face was fixed in a paralytic grimace
Yup, hence me thinking a small protective headguard on the back of the head would be a good idea, as gay as it would look.
:atu: Boxing is a brutal sport. The fighters know the risks. Start protecting them too much and you change the sport.
Wow... This is close to topping the list of the ridiculous things you've said. Roy was OUT. Eyes glassy, limbs stiff. If anything, that's on the severe side of knocked out. He and Hatton were in a similar state.
Correction: Roy's head hit the canvas harder than Johnson hit him...regardless...Roy was out when Johnson landed the shot.
Another one: Freddie Pendleton on Roger Mayweather. Roger was held up by the ropes and took a followup beating prescient of Mercer-Morrison. The first shot put him out badly. The final image of Roger "facedown, ass-up" reminds me of that song by The 2 Live Crew.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjHDnwqAhVg This is pretty much where the term "blown away" came from. It's also the reason why Floyd Sr was saying "BBRRRRRDDDDDDUUPUPP" when he was trying to say, "Punch in combination, Oscar". :: Somebody embed this shit. I'm stuck at work and I can't.
