Post by Mimmy »

Im just converting a tape and come across the fight that has the quickest finish in a British ring. Without going through the history books on Google can anyone name this fight that has the quickest win ever (apparently according to Boxrec)

Wasn't there a featherweight contest that lasted 10.5 seconds including the count? The Benn one was quick, wicked punch to end the fight!

Haven't heard of one quicker than this. I know Pele Reid used to hold the record at 9 seconds when Michael Murray dislocated his shoulder.

I remember Eubank having a one punch fight I think, can't remember how long it lasted though.

I remember Alvin "Slick" Miller stopping Steve Petitt in Brum very early in the first round. Its actually documented at 6 seconds.

Think that's an error on boxrec, I'll ask them to look into it. My understanding it was 17 seconds, according to a couple of reports I've read.

Another quick finish was Ducky Rees over Des Sowden. Remember he dropped him with the first punch and the ref stopped it but can't find it on youtube .... can't have been more than 10 seconds.
