There's one that I've never been able to make out who the fighters are but think it's at cruiser or heavy and this guy lands this mahooosive left hook and his opponent's gumshield/spit/teeth seem to shoot up in the air and it's like 'tiiiimbbberr as he falls to the floor' (similar to Spoon vs Eklund'.

Yeah, the Serwano KO was frightening. He went into convulsions. Urggh! :(

Funny how no-one's mentioned Mike Tyson on here. His KO of Marvis Frazier was spooky to watch. On his knees in the corner totally gone.

that ann wolfe one against vonda ward was a peach.

just the way ward comes onto it and gets the full impact.

Barrett's KO of Calamati is a brutal example of timing and speed

Was Mark Hobson vs. Tony Moran a bad one? Seem to recall Moran out for a while and lots of worried faces and his girlfriend giving Hobson a slap.

Danny McIntosh vs. Rod Anderton was a superb punch and quite a brutal KO, one of the best of 2009 IMO.

I thought his next was surely broken, the angle of it when the monster punch landed. Made me feel sick!

It's never good when fighters are still shipping punches when out cold - very similar to the ruddock v dokes ko that always gets mentioned in these sort of threads - connects like a baseball bat.

That was a hell of a fight. In fact 'second tier heavyweight dust ups' deserves its own thread. Moorer - Bert Cooper would be right up there

amazing, razor was up at about 5 ...
