Same drill as the Fight of the Week poll. Poll will run for 4 days, and after that the KO with the most votes will receive the first KO of the Week award. Good luck to the nominees.

Personally my vote goes to Eder Jofre KO 13 Joe Lynch, as he dominated Lynch throughout, and Lynch was the most high profile of all the KO victims this week.

Let's see how this one shakes out over the next 4 days.

I'm Voting for Israel Vazquez TKO over Kid Wiliams.

2 for Vazquez vs Williams then.

Jeff Fenech's allowing Al to foul himself out in a face saving generous act of kindness surely qualifies.

Otherwise....it was comin', and in a big way.

A DQ win is not eligible for a KO of the Week award.

the fight was dead even pretty much and then Vazquez started swelling up from a punch and hes known to get stopped with cuts so he turned it up in the next 2 rounds and got the stoppage in a fight he was probably the underdog going into. just thought i would give some insight into my choice.

Yup, I vote for the Vazquez v Williams fight too, great fight. It was close all the way up to the stoppage.

Well that is inherently unfair, it denies the inevitable.

Ok so that's 3 confirmed for Vazquez vs Williams. I assume one of the "Other" votes is Buzz nominated his ineligible DQ win. I don't know what the 5th "Other" vote was for.

Somebody's gonna have to make that clear or it won't count.

A DQ is not a KO. That's all there is to it. Never has a DQ win won the Ring Magazine "Knockout of the Year" award, and never will a DQ win the Sim "KO of the Week" award either.

You're right, that's exactly what the DQ did.

Well it's time to think outside "The Ring". And stop standing in the way of progress.

Eder Jofre KO 13 Joe Lynch

Considering DQ's , KO's would be Regressing not Progressing.

IN this case one fighter so intimidated the other, that the loser simply fouled out rather than face the inevitable.

Sort of like one of your fighters giving ours the nod of "no mas" just a nanosecond after the bell rings.

But we will never embarrass you in such a way. Why? Because you are very well regarded, and we don't want the hate mail.

THE POLL HAS CLOSED.

The First Ever Sim KO of the Week Award goes to: Eder Jofre KO 13 Joe Lynch

Congratulations to Jofre and his manager BoxBully.
