Top 10 How'd he get up from that ? KO's

Good list. First that came to my mind was Holmes/Shavers, and it's on there, plus the first one on list is freakish too.

The one that sprung to mind without seeing the list first was Bradley Vs Holt. Again without looking on youtube, Calzaghe Vs Byron Mitchell was one that always impressed me. I'll take a look on youtube and probably be disappointed :lol: :lol:

Dunno if it's on the list because it wasn't necassarily a brutal knockdown but Ali v Frazier 1 was the one that came straight into my head because of the speed with which Ali got up.

That is a class punch remember that fight on BBC 1 i think? Remember Rothman he was south african wernt he? Beat some good fighters!!

! that sticks in my mind is a young James Toney beating a great fighter in Michael Nunn around 2.30 he gets some serious power by switching stance whilst throwing so creating alot of power http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWtl-ae65qI

Also Archie Moore vs durelle but he comes back and wins, he was down about 4 times in the fight and 3 in the 1st round 2 were heavy knockdowns at around 30 and 40 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0a5n4ySxDk

The penultimate KD of Shannon Briggs at the hands of Lennox Lewis was a "Wow" moment for me. Briggs didn't get up to win, but got up and still threw punches.

Okay the fight SHOULD have been stopped, but how did McCory get up from the first KO vs Curry. He was out on his feet and took one shot too many with the follow up, but how he beat the 10 count is a shocker.

Similarly, and a similar ending - Maccarinelli's fight with Fenkel. How did he get up.

Still undoubtedly my favourite as my eyes nearly came out on stalks when I watched it live on TV - at the time was sure it was 'game over'. Watch from 2min 10 secs mark:

Full list was

Morrison/Ruddock
Donaire/Montiel ( maybe the most eye popping of the lot )
Ali/Frazier 1
Bradley/Holt
Ibeabuchi/Byrd
Foreman/Lyle
Foreman/Frazier
Trinidad/Vargas
Holmes/Shavers
Miranda/Banks


Was pretty amazing Khan got up from the 2nd Prescott knockdown. The 1st knockdown had you thinking his chin was bad, but when he got up from the 2nd....maybe not so bad..!

Bellew-McKenzie comes to mind as it was fairly recent. Most fighters would have been sleeping but Bellew got up like he was getting out of a cold bath.

Certainly must have been an element of that but the slow-motion replay shows how clean a shot it was. Good to see the fight up on youtube, I must watch the whole thing again. Haven't seen it for a long time. You're right, the pace for the 15th round was a bit special.
