Horace Notice v Harold Hylton in the final of the 1983 ABA Heavyweight Champs. Poor Harold was sleeping like a baby. (Tip of the hat to Bennie on this one.)

HAHA A SORRY DID MEAN LUCERO.
and you not the pudendum I am for getting it wrong!
The most exciting must have been Ali coming off the ropes to knock out Foreman after beeing pounded the whole fight, with his rope a dope plan! Not a big KO just exciting.
Must admit the recent KO of Tak from Alexander was a good clean punch with devastating power!

Julian Jackson on Herol Graham and Buster Drayton was a great display of power. Macarinelli's left hook on Bruce Scott was a work of art. Ray Leonard on Davey Green was great. Bob Foster on Tiger and Quarry. Zamora on Pedroza.
Arguello- Rooney was a pure class KO. What a fighter Alexis was.
I maintain that the most chilling Ko I have seen is Kenny Vice - Jim McDonnell, with Azumah Nelson - Pat Cowdell a close second.

What he American by any chance? Christ what a biased list.
Tyson knocked out Berbick three times with one punch. I always seem to remember that Berbick looked like a child in a play pen, his legs just did not belong to him.
Gatti knocking Gamache out was absolutely fabulous ! Chris Eubank also scored one of the most spectacular KO against some unheraled fighter cant remember the name though
