Sky used to do a show called Knockouts of 'insert current year' around this time of year. Have they stopped doing it?
I don't have Sky Sports anymore but might cheekily pop over to a mates to watch if so.

Sadly they stopped the show about 3 years ago. I really used to enjoy it. 30 mins of spectacular stoppages. I seem to remember it was always shown on Boxing Day.
Now all we get is the top 10 KO's, which lasts about 3 mins, inserted in the middle of the Fights of the Year show they do:(
Bring it back I say.

I suspect these days half of them will be fighters stopped on their feet after 3 or 4 punches.

Sky would be struggling to make a decent KO compilation these days as they film a lot less boxing and only own the footage of one promoter's shows.

Can't we have a 'Controversial Stoppages Of The Year'?.

A 'British' stoppage of the year would be a good laugh.

Hardly any lower league,Irish football games anymore Never thought I'd ever see the day but i think i might be cancelling in the new year
The Northern Irish games are shocking, it's like watching non-league sides. Andy Smith spent 3 years banging them in for Glentoran, came to us and didn't score once.

They don't show enough fights to warrant the 6 stoppages that would appear on the program
