A remember fairly recently one time heavyweights Chris Burton and mark krence
Moved down to cruiserweight and had very wobbly legs in their ko losses
Also khan's legs were like jelly from the first second against breidis prescott
Weight and conditioning is a huge factor
Danny Williams had famous wobbles but it was more the chin than legs

SRL had written in his autobiography that his legs went out during round seven of this fight.

Mike Weaver told me he lost his legs right before the Pinklon Thomas bout.

I was a Heavyweight... A big and tall one... I was introduced a couple times as "The world's hardest punching Heavyweight." which was untrue, but some people thought I hit hard because I flattened a ranked heavyweight with a very short hook... I went over to the announcer and told him "Please don't say that" and he didn't do it again... This is all true, but I'm only giving you the good stuff and not the negative stuff.
I forgot Kalan was once “The world’s hardest punching heavyweight.” Too bad his legs went before he got his title shot vs Ali

Ali obviously ducked him.
