    I personally enjoy disqualification.

    For real though, it is always pretty sweet to jump up and say "OH MY GOD!" when someone literally gets knocked the **** out.

    D. Hopkins vs. Warrick
    Brock vs. Lawrence
    Green vs. Codrington
    Tarver vs. Jones
    G. Johnson vs. Jones

    You know what I'm talking about.

        I said KO.. but.. I lie decisions too, because you get the suspense, and the "And NEW/STILL" always sounds better when Buffer tries to surprise you with it... When it's a KO.. I like it to be a surprise too.. I also like Surprise parties.......

            Gotta be a KO. There's no controversy with a KO.

                Well, the "non-issue" is settled, much like the results of this poll thus far. The KO is not only the favored, but is the single most conclusive result in boxing. There's almost no room for controversy - a fighter is knocked on his ass, is counted out, fight over!

                The TKO is relatively conclusive as well, but not without controversy (did the ref act too hastily?). A decision, while conclusive for the record, is way too subjective to be without controversy (which fight was that judge watching? I wuz robbed!).

                The KO and TKO, for the sheer drama of sport, are boxing's "homerun," "touchdown," or "slam dunk."

                  I honostky like a decision best... it gives you something to talk about... how you scored it, how others scored it... and if your fighter got screwed it lets you come on here and tell everyone how and why... and if the fight was that close you get your great rematches

                    I like tko's beaten to the point where you must quit. I don't really like full blown ko's because you spend more time worrying about if the dude will speak straight rather than how his head just rolled off his shoulders.
