More recently, I was shocked and more than a little worried about Ricky Hatton's health after the cold knockout it received at the hands of Manny Pacquaio. The way he fell, it was chilling!

I've always thought the flurry that Ali threw at Brian London when London was in a corner stood out. Ali then stood back and watched London fall like a tree. He seemed to throw about 30 punches.

Ruddock kayoing dokes was pretty brutal also Enzos head rolling about when he got flattened by that Russian guy was quite upsetting

is that the best punch never seen? you need the slo-mo - what a great shot

Kenny vice's brutal KO of him McDonnell it was so bad that the walk out fight was cancelled and everyone just sat around for a while and just went home

Bloody hell forgot about that, if I remember rightly vice had already been involved in a tragic fight and was really worried about Jim as a result

Arturo Gatti vs Joey Gamache

Enzo Macc is a really good fighter and seems a great bloke but I've seen him in 2 or 3 really worrying knockouts.

Sugar Ray Leonard -v- Dave 'Boy' Green

Mike Tyson -v- Marvis Frazier

Thomas Hearns -v- James Shuler

Audley Harrison -v- Michael Sprott 2

Tommy Morrison -v- Donovan 'Razor' Ruddock

Oleg Maskaev -v- Hasim Rahman

Tyson v Spinks was pretty nasty.

Vincent Pettway v Simon Brown was worrying.

Gatti v Ruelas was like someone opened a trapdoor.

Anyone remember garring lane smashing Alex Garcia ?

Mike tyson vs marvis fraiser has to be up there an definitely lewis's ko of rachman the sound when tht right hand connected

Funnily enough the knockout Enzo suffered at the hands of Frenkel came to mind for me when I watched the Cooper/Erskin KO further up the thread. It's the only time in recent years I can remember a fight in a British ring being allowed to continue after several very heavy knockdowns.

Enzo had a nightmare post Haye, runs into the unknown Afolabi, followed by the unknown Lebedev, then a few fights later the devastating loss to Frenkel

Another pretty bad one was Ray Mercer vs. Jeff Pegues, the last punch he loaded up on almost tore his head off !!

Hearns vs Duran
Jackson vs Graham

To me, they do not get better than it

Arguello vs Rooney was a great one two KO.

for me it was Marciano vs Walcott 1 round 13, great knockout for the rock.

Milton saw neither the left hook (a beautifully precise punch) or the smashing right hand that ended the bout. Curry was a master boxer and had terrific leverage and power.

he even slipped the jab first, even on slo mo its still pretty fast

Curry was brilliant for a time, wasn't he, little pug? Even his guard was cool. I tried to spar with my hands held like him and got my arse kicked. Started keeping my hands in front of my face then and stopped throwing punches.

He wasnt bad was Curry. Just left the move up to light middle a couple of fights late.

Terry Norris held his hands same way, I also tried it as an amateur but had it knocked out of me by the coach

aye, he had Milt on toast there, he was able to anticipate every move- every micro-move for god's sake- Milt did. the poise, anticipation, balance, were all perfect that night, almost as perfect as single performance as I have seen

I've seen too little of Don Curry, I have a career dvd set which I'm saving for a slow day, and the last few posts of this thread have really whetted my appetite, I don't think I will put off watching that for much longer.

Witherspoon v Smith 2 was a nasty experience for me, I was 7 years old and watching my idol dismantled, not too violently and almost submissively. That hurt.

Witherspoon took a dive in the fight he has said so himself to get out of cluches of don king
