    Wlad-Pulev ESPN's KO of the year?!

    They dont want to acknowledge NBC or something? Mansour's KO of Kassi was 10X more brutal! It took Kassi 5-6 minutes to get his senses back and get up!

    I would even put Walters-Donaire ahead if that one, Walters knocked him silly!

    Groves limbs were bent in unnatural angles after he got blasted by Froch !

    Ya there is much better knockouts than this. It was a great punch, his legs buckled, and then wlad pushed him back. It wasn't a clean knock out.

      Amir Mansour should get KO of the year. It is not up for discussion

      This is what I thought should have got KO of the year in 2013

        Mansour got him against the ropes and caught him with a monster shot! Then I noticed...he's...not getting up...he's still out . I thought Mansour killed that man. The medics worked on him for 5-6 minutes before he showed any signs of life .

          ESPN's boxing department is obviously run by casual fans. No way did that deserve KO of the Year.

              That is the same reason why I thought this should get KO of the Year in 2013. Did Aquacknis Chickenson get the KO of the Year award in 2013?

                Really?

                I would've been cool with Froch-Groves II, but that Mansour KO craps all over everything.

                  Well I personally like my knockout of the year to come in a big spot, brutality is great but it meaning something is important to me.


                  Wlad stomped on dude but that was a meaningful fight at the top of a division. So I think Wlad's does the trick but there are probably other ones in big spots that are it's equal.

                    One of the rare times I agree with Rafael. It was a dramatic KO, picture perfect left hook moments after it looked like Pulev staggered Wlad.

                    Typical Rafael though, undermines his list by listing Golovkin-Geale under honorable mention. I mean how is that even possible? It was a good knockdown, that's it.
