    Im not sure what you mean here. Schooling your opponent over the distance is certainly impressive. But there is no more definitive way to win a fight than by knock out.

      Like I said, best way to go is with a 10-11 round schooling and end it with a knock out. B-Hop vs. Tito for example. The knock out is good but look at Paul Williams vs Quintana 2 or Hasim Rahman's knock out of Lewis, people say those two got lucky. You can't argue a schooling and it doesn't warrant a rematch.

        Depends on the fight. Under some circumstances, the wipeout UD is actually better for the reason El stated. But KO's are are emphatic.

          imo a 12 round thrashing is more impressive. perfect example quintana and pwill. quintana put them hands on pwill. pwill just caught him with a good shot imo.

              No punch is lucky if you're trying to hit the man in front of you. I do agree a 12 round ass whooping is very impressive, but I also think the a ko is a more definitive ending. I'll take either from my favorite fighters and not complain.

                Either way, both are impressive. I wasn't too happy when Paul didn't get credit for his 1st round K.O of Quintana.

                    I personally though he made a statement after losing their first fight. I also thought he made a statement with the 12 round beating he gave Winky Wright. Either way I agree both ways of winning are impressive. Unobjective haters will always find excuses no matter what though.

                      Exactly, anyone can get caught, it doesnt mean youre the better fighter, but if you school someone over 12 rounds it says youre the better fighter. Id think a pure boxing fan would think someone outboxing someone is more impressive, I mean why train to box, might as well lift weights get strong and hope you can connect for a KO if thats what its about.
