I'm assuming that it has something to do with their various ring monickers as Coley was/is known as "Chop Chop" & Sheppard was the "Hachetman". But, I'm not sure what Collier's was. If I'm on the right track then perhaps James Broad would have fit in as well as he was known as the "Broadaxe".

It was Demarcus Corley known as chop chop, I think, not Derell Coley

They were the only individuals to have KO someone who otherwise had never been KO'd in their Boxing career.

All three stopped guys who were never stopped by anyone else. Also all three did it in the 1st round.

You may as well add Jack Johnson to that mix for his fight with Jim Jeffries.

as well as Muhammad Ali (the only person to knock out Oscar Bonavena-even if he was standing over him
waiting to knock-him down again).

I'm talking first round KO's over otherwise never KO'd fighters...
