BoxRec

benn was my other choice but i couldn't think who against

I seem to remember one where the boxer lands a left hook and the ref immediatly calls it off..........but i'm buggered if i can remember who it was

Wasn't there a featherweight contest that lasted 10.5 seconds including the count? The Benn one was quick, wicked punch to end the fight!

Sean Turner stopped Zoltan Elekes in 8 seconds.

Haven't heard of one quicker than this. I know Pele Reid used to hold the record at 9 seconds when Michael Murray dislocated his shoulder.

I remember Eubank having a one punch fight I think, can't remember how long it lasted though.

There's a great shot of a young naz watching this fight with his mouth open.

what about quickest world title fight in a british ring ? off the top of my head its got to be either naz, duke McKenzie or eamon loughran

I remember Alvin "Slick" Miller stopping Steve Petitt in Brum very early in the first round. Its actually documented at 6 seconds.

Think that's an error on boxrec, I'll ask them to look into it. My understanding it was 17 seconds, according to a couple of reports I've read.

I don't remember it being 6 either but I'm confident it was under 17. Ill make inquiries.

Another quick finish was Ducky Rees over Des Sowden. Remember he dropped him with the first punch and the ref stopped it but can't find it on youtube .... can't have been more than 10 seconds.
