Highest KO percntage?

[RockyMarcianofan00]

actually he lost his second match

Answer to this thread (heavyweights anyway)
Is two fighters

Prime George Foreman had a 92.5% KO rate but he didn't retire he kept fighting and that rate went down to 87%. Somebody

So the official highest KO percent based on number of fights goes to Rocky Marciano at 88%


the reason i said based on # of fights is because somebody pointed out vitali klitchko had a higher % but Klitchko didn't fight 49 fights.

Now you may say well that means George forman still had higher but if you calculate George Foremans KO percent at his 49th fight (number of Marciano's fights) he was 47-2 with 22 KO's if i'm not mistaken
Now
22 KO's out of 47 wins is roughly 47%
exactly 46.808510638297875

now add in his losses
22 ko's out of 49 fights his percent is rougly 45%
exactly 44.89795918367347

Please Correct me if I'm wrong because i'm not 100% sure i did this right

May I suggest you obtain a Grade 3 math equivelancy before attempting to do your own taxes.

Foreman was 47-2 with 44 KO's after 49 fights

KO ratio is 89.79 %

KO per win ratio is 93.61 %

Prior to challenging Holyfield, Foreman was 69-2 with 65 KO's

KO ratio was 91.54 %

KO per win ratio was 94.2 %

Not bad for a 42 year old.

Listen I'm very tired
I actually don't see where i screwed up but there's like 90% chance your right and i'm wrong so i'll take your word for it

I purposely said that i'd take any critsism because I'm not sure how right i was

I have a 3rd grade education

Shavers had a high % of KO's for his wins... but he lost more than his fair share as well.

Same as Mac Foster. 30 KO's in 30 wins for a 100 % KO to win ratio...

[magicjordan]

topic...who has it?

i think edwin valero has it,100% k.o.

[paulmmv]

vitali klitschko has one of the best percentage

[machotime]

Wilfredo Gomez (the best 122 ever) had a ko% of 95%. he was 44-3(42). Most of which were one punch KOs.

All 20 of his title defenses came by way of KO.

[The_One77]

Heavyweight from the 70's Mac Foster
