    The Rock will remain in history books, as the guy who KTFO Lennox Lewis with a single punch, scared Vitaly into retirement and KTFO Corrie Sanders (the guy, who destroyed Wladimira).
    Go, Rock!

    If the fighters' gloves are not loaded (ala Margarito), or if the fighter is not a cheater (ala Castillo), knockouts are quite often not a single-punch affair.

    Very often. Usually knockouts happen from accumulation (i.e. Late round knockouts often occur when one fighter has taken a beating).

    It's usually combinations that cause knockouts because there simply aren't that many one-punch specialists out there. Look at Tyson versus Pinklon Thomas. It was Tyson's combinations which added up to a devastating knockout.

    One-hit KO artists are not that common.

    I keep track of one punch knockouts.

    They happen a lot more in mma, which makes sense.

    They happen regularly in boxing...maybe 10% of ko/tko's, I'd guess. I could do more than guess, but I'm not going to. :lol:
