Shortest fight ever

I watched a UFC scrap the other day, some Fella Mark Wier from Gloucestershire KO'd some dude in like 9 seconds.
It got me wondering what is the quickest recorded KO in a boxing ring, and who dealt it?

by knockout
Weir has a habit of doing that.. he did some one in about 17 seconds last month

Gilfachs ducky rees scored a fasten against des snowden (think) a few years back. I only had one flight of stairs to reach my seat, heard the bell, heard the count start, got to my seat saw the ref wave it of.
About 6 secs i think.

Actually the official time is 4 seconds, quickest win in boxing history.
Teach me to turn up late eh!

Didn't Patrick J. Maxwell KO someone really fast ? Halder was it?

Didn't butterbean Eric Esch score the quickest HW KO when the other guy took a dive.

Easy question for you then, who has knocked out 2 Heavyweight title champions in under 30 seconds?

This has to be one of the fastest knockouts ever seen, around 2 seconds and pretty brutal

I know they say defend yourself at all times but that is just sneaky. I'll be looking out for that shitbag. Hope he gets brutally KOd himself.
I can't find the bout on boxrec, MW. Any ideas?

Yeah it's a bad one, though technicaly legal - Nicky Piper did the same thing, mentioned above: his opponent put out his hand to touch gloves, and Piper dropped a right hand on his chin - KO1.
No I can't find the bout show on boxrec either...weird.

Pele Reid stopped someone in 8 seconds once.
Tom Podmore.

For an actual knockout and not TKO, Al Foreman knocked out an opponent in 1 1/2 second...11 1/2 seconds including the count.

Was that the fight in which Pele beat Murray on a freak shoulder dislocation?

Tom Podmore.

Look at his most recent opponent, two years ago.
Talk about shadow boxing!

Freddie Pendleton always used to come out of his corner fast and throw a huge right hand trying to catch his opponent unawares.
Worked a couple of times for him 1st round KO's of Tyrone Trice and Sammy Fuentes

I have no problem with fast starts but it's completely fornicating out of order if the other guy is trying to show sportsmanship by touching gloves.
Then again, does anyone remember the shitty trick Eubank used to pull when he was in bother? Go to offer a glove yourself and when the other guy was in the middle of responding, try and take his head off?

Yep. He would do whatever it took to get the 'W'. Remember the sneaky headbut against Sherry in his first defence? Sherry tried to overplay it but Eubank was thoroughly frustrated that night.
Eubank, despite boring me to sleep some nights, had an over whelming will to win, probably best displayed in his hurculean efforts against Watson (2nd fight) and his 2 losing encounters with Carl Thompson.

Ian, Naz tried that on in final round with Barrera, extend glove with the other one cocked and a big grin on his face. Loved the response from Marco, he slapped the piss out of him then put him head-first into the corner post, cheating a cheat I'd say.
Totally agree. Hamed was terrible that night and getting slammed into the corner post was the final humiliation. Not as humiliating as shitting into a bucket which he'll hopefully be doing in 2006 though.

Watching Dunstan-Gurov the other evening, that must have been a quick one. And didn't Eubank stop a Brazilian with the first punch i seem to remember?
