    i hate to sound like a stereotypical american boxing fan, but i like knockouts. theres no more decisive way to win than by knockout.

        Same here, as long as there's no permanent damage to the fighter, its the ultimate in ending the fight. No mistake about the winner in that case.

          I really just appreciate great fights, whether it's a decision or a knockout. But yes I agree knockouts are more memorable and they add more drama to a situation. Knockouts are fun, but I especially like them when they are hard earned and a guy has to be broken down before you stop him rather than just blasting him all at once, but hell I just love boxing period.

            decisions can be great fights also as long as there is hard shots traded... take wlad vs peter... peter rocked wlad a few times but wlad boxed technically good and rocked peter pretty good in the last round... very entertainng fight

              As a fighter, I'll take a win anyway I can get it.....knockouts are awesome, especially the lethal left hook to the liver, thats my favorite.

                Quick knockouts are fun to watch and i like them as much as the next guy,I mean who can forget Tyson pasting Spinks or Foreman vs Frasier,

                but i love watching thinking fighters, guys who dont land any punches by accident,where every punch is deliberate and calculated, intelligent fighters who pick their opponents apart, methodicaly breaking them down and then putting them away, take hopkins vs tito for one example

                  I can dig on that.....obviously when a fight goes the distance, the more punches are landed and the more damage is inflicted- not too hard to see who the winner is that way.

                    i prefer to see knockouts but if all fights end up like ward-gatti then decisions are good for me, lol...

                    the difference really are the judges... ko's don't need judges opinions... decisions do... and you can't rely on decision that much

                      my favorite fights are "close but clear", because I always feel bad for the loser if its too wide, or if it's too close.
