      Not taking anything from Dempsey, but you have to consider the fact that rules were different back then. You didn't have to go to a neutral corner, and (I could be wrong about this, but I'm damn near positive) there was no 8 count rule. So basically Dempsey knocks him down, and stands over him. As soon as Willard gets back up, Dempsey floors him again before Willard has a chance to get set again.

      So while it's impressive, you definitely have to remember that boxing was different back then.

        Danny is a damn pain man, the amount of pain he takes is well, impressive.

            Green/Codrington was bad, and it was only 18 seconds.

            Holmes/Cobb was so bad Howard Cosell said he would never do another fight, and he never did.

              If we are talking about one-sided beatings from beginning to end i'd add:


              Roy Jones Jr. - Richard Hall
              Julio Cesar Chavez - Edwin Rosario

                Oh yeah. Geezus that was bad. A great article on that fight: http://www.********boxing.com/news.php?p=7819&more=1

                And a funny quote from that article:

                The 1982 title fight between defending heavyweight ruler Larry Holmes and challenger Randall "Tex" Cobb was so one-sided, the very fact that the match was permitted to carry on for mismatched round after mismatched round brought about the retirement of commentator Howard Cosell. Never again would Howard sit behind a microphone and describe the action from a pro boxing match.. And despite Cobb's faculties being in fine enough working order after the fight to be able to utter the memorable quote he came out with upon hearing of Cosell's actions - namely that he could provide his sport with no greater service - this quip did not in any way lessen the fact of just how one sided and pitiful the bout had been to watch.

                  Mayweather vs Gatti
                  Calzahge(sp) vs Lacy
                  Hearns vs Duran Two all time greats. But that right hand that Hearns hit Duran with... DAMN.
