KO of the Decade?

[Haglerwins]

The hatton vs pacquaio knockout was a one punch wonder... Had to be the best k.o. Of the decade...

I think the title of this thread should be clearer. I think sickest KO is what everybody is getting at, because it's definitely not the most impactful of the last 10 years. A ATG P4P fighter being KO'd inside 2 rounds when he definitely still had it was a sight to behold.

Here are the other good ones we've missed so far


Shannon Briggs KO12 Sergei Lyakhovich (2006) - For the few fans who were able to stay awake for 11 rounds, 2 minutes and about 48 seconds of this stinker, they were rewarded with a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence: a portion of the heavyweight title changing hands on a last-second knockdown. Lyakhovich filed a protest making every lame excuse imaginable, but Briggs knocking him through the ropes was fully legit.

Calvin Brock KO6 Zuri Lawrence (2006) - The closest you will ever come to seeing a guy fast asleep on his feet. One left hand by Brock, and Lawrence dropped to the canvas like water running out of a cup.

Arthur Abraham KO12 Jermain Taylor (2009) - A few of Abraham’s KOs could have made this list (his second fight vs. Edison Miranda, Khoren Gevor, Elvin Ayala) and so could Taylor’s knockout losses at the hands of Kelly Pavlik and Carl Froch. But Abraham-Taylor, at a packed 02 Arena in Berlin on opening night of Showtime’s Super Six tournament gets the nod. Abraham’s straight right hand not only ended Taylor’s night six seconds short of the final bell, it concussed him badly. It was one of the truly great moments in German boxing history.

Shane Mosley TKO9 Antonio Margarito (2009) - After getting caught trying to load up his handwraps, Margarito learned the hard way that payback really is a *****.

I'd put Jones/Johnson over Jones/Tarver 2. While the Tarver KO was absolutely stunning to the viewing audience and to those of us at home, Roy did try to beat the count.

Glen Johnson on the other hand had the sick KO. He had me scared for Roy's life for a minute. I thought Jr. could actually kiss his life goodbye for awhile there. The strange thing about it though is it's more of a well placed punch by Glen and not a monster homerun shot, but you would think Roy was hit with a bat by how he reacted to it.

2007: Nonito Donaire KO5 Vic Darchinyan

I think this is the K.O of the DECADE you can actually hear the leather gloves and the way it sounded is amazing, and its not a FATIGUE k.o,, So its way beautiful than the rest IMHO

Oh there's more, Roy lays out and goes still. Look for a longer clip.
