    Loaded gloves talked about the Hopkins KO of Joe Lipsey in the other thread, and that got me thinking: what are the best KO combinations I've ever seen? The ones where it was a combo of the shots that messed the guy up.

    My thoughts went from the sickening (Gatti-Gamache) to the shockingly surprising (Corrales-Castillo 1).

    So name a few that you thought were brutal.

    The first few that come to mind are Douglas-Tyson, Leonard-Mayweather, and Tua-Ruiz. You can call those brutal, breathtaking, and downright ugly.

    Forgot about this one for a second. I'm sure it's not in Tommy's memory either.

    That uppercut almost ripped Paz's head off. I guess he should have timed his caffeine right.

    Lewis/Rahman 2. A thing of beauty was that left-right combo to flatten Rahman.

    Gatti/Gamache it reminded me of a tee-ball game.

    Gatti Vs Gamache was just obscene, the way his head was bouncing around etc. For such a limited fighter, that sure was a good, precise combo.

    Tua Vs Ruiz was pretty awesome too.

    Tyson Vs Pinks is excellent, just a non stop barrage of well placed, fast power shots.

    Seen Vaca put Breland away? Wow!!!

    Of course, Mercer-Morrison.

    The pummeling a young Foreman put on the invincible Chuvalo was scary.

    Poor Thomas. That last combination was horrific. Pinklon was too tough for his own good.

    Yep. Trinidad is a classic case were a fighter goes from overrated to underrated.

    Sure he was overrated in his prime. But now according to some he was a SCRUB. :wack:

    Anyhow, the combination Hamed put Augie Sanchez out with was brutal.

    Roy Jones against Pazienza too. That last uppercut he landed was just SICK.

    Leonard vs Green. right uppercut-left hook, right cross-left hook.

    Tyson vs Thomas- Ouch.

    I think so, he feinted it to the body and then swept it to the head. Undercard of a pretty big fight, might have been Hamed vs McCullough or Oscar vs Quartey, or Holy vs Lewis. Some time around then.

    actually a feint of the right to the body but then coming upstairs with it. he landed it a million times in his career, chacon was about the only guy i recall him KOing with that maneuver.

    Wow, you really think so???:

    Morales had an underrated uppercut. If he had fought Naz his left uppercut would have been something he could have used to catch Bat Ears on the way in or out.
