Yep, that was the KO I thought of as well when I read the thread title. Brutal.
Jackson vs Graham was obviously another worthy of mention.

Kenny Vice v Jim McDonnell.

Hopkins vs Lipsey. Both the uppercut that stuns him and the finisher.

good call billy, I was at another show that night and word came through on the grape that wayne had done tak with a one punch ko, it was a very surprising result, a sickening shot that was just compulsive viewing.

Gerald McClellan can't remember the name of the fighter he ko's it's the one where the guy is out cold and mcclellan is already walking away to a neutral corner before the guy hits the canvas

Hearns vs schuler or Duran
Azumah nelson vs pat cowdell

Naz v Augie Sanchez was a brutal finish

Hatton / Castillo is up there. That was brutal.

Roy Jones Jr vs Art Serwano! them eyes

Great shout.

Augie had a knack for getting done in ways that made it look like someone had shot him from the second row.

Here, John Michael Johnson introduces him to the street of dreams:

A lot of the "sickening" KO's have come from incompetent refereeing and corner work imo such as when Duran beat up Moore.

Agree with the Grant punch utterly sickening. What a rotten human he was.

Any punch that Joe Louis landed on anybody, talk about punching with bad intentions. His leverage was awesome.

Agree with the shout about Alexander V Takaloo

Tua's final uppercut on an already sparked out John Ruiz... grim

Wow that was a scary knockout, can't believe it was back in 2001.
Good job that was Augie's last fight and God knows why the ref decided to count to 10, he obviously expected him to spring up at 9...

looked up to see what happened to Johnson, after hearing him say he left it late, too much partying, but now he was going to take it seriously ....only to find out he came back a few months ago, at 45, and is saying the same thing...tough man obviously !

Cheers for that mate!

Yeah, JMJ was a proper hard-case. Watched the Junior Jones fight again just the other day...

If it's based on most sickening then hands down its the tragic fight between defending world champion, Levander Johnson & Jesus Chavez.

I can't believe it hasn't been mentioned in this thread.

Most sickening I've seen, I remember watching it and you could tell before Johnson even came out for the 11th round he was in serious trouble.

Unfortunately he was sent out after taking a 1 sided beating for 10 rounds, and took yet more brutal punishment for about another minute before sagging against the ropes with his head being rolled around before totally collapsing to the canvas. He never regained concousness.

That by far was most sickening to witness.

The uppercut Lennox landed on Vitali, anyone else and they'd have landed on the moon.

Also the Hearns punch which lifted Duran off his feet and McClellan vs Danny Mitchell a true "timmmberrrrrrr" moment.

Witherspoon-Eklund was a brutal one.

Mcclellan v danny mitchell was the one I was on about I think mate unreal ko

The world flyweight champion back in the early 80s Antônio Avelar, A massive puncher, but gets blasted out in the first round of this world title defence - and my god you won't see a more shocking one punch knockout than this one....

McClellan gets Jay Bell out very quick with a horrible body punch.

Not quite sure why the ref felt the need to keep counting over him!

Ola's KO of Terry Dunstan was crazy. Not great opposition but a great punch. The fact I was pissed up in Napa at the time might have made it better than it actually was though! Then Wlad V Haye sent me to sleep.
