I'd say David Tua vs John Ruiz & Amir Khan vs Breidis Prescott are the two that spring to my mind.

The Tua fight especially, i thought Ruiz was dead.

Apparently Tua is targetting titles next year according to his promoter.

Khan's KO was eff all really, see them all the time.

For me it was either Herol Graham against Julian Jackson or Simon Browns KO at the hands of Vincent Pettway.

Was savage that one.
I had the dubious privilege of being at the Albert Hall that night. McDonnell was coming back after his superb performance against Azumah Nelson, and Vice was supposed to be an easy night's work. McDonnell was trying to show who was boss and was forcing the fight. I had a view of his back as Vice threw a left hook from a tight guard. I was quite a few rows back, but the impact of the punch on McDonnell's jaw was loud, and it instantly switched his lights off. It was honestly like he'd been picked off by a sniper hiding in the audience. He collapsed, his leg went into spasm and a pool of blood formed on the canvas around his head. I think many of us thought we'd just watched someone get killed right in front of us. Vice was very upset. McDonnell made a full recovery but unsurprisingly, the board of control were not inclined to renew his license. When I saw the knockout later on TV, it didn't look nearly so frightening.

I remember that fight like yesterday, what a corker he hit Takaloo with.

I remember the commentator saying that Alexander could punch as hard as anyone in the world at his weight... then BOOM, the benefit cheat got obliterated.
