Not to take anything away from Canelo, because it was a good knockout(against a guy who is chinny). Not KO of the year IMO, but this was given by ESPN. I'll give an example: When I saw the Canelo vs Kirkland fight and James got knocked out I thought it was a good knockout and James was alright. When I saw the Vicente vs Dominguez KO I was literally concerned for the guy's life, that's how brutal of a KO it was, so it's the more impressive knockout

Quality of opponent considered...not my choice or even top 3, but couldve been worse
the KO of Huck was better because of the comeback and quality of fighter knocked out....Kirkland hasnt been a top ten contender in some time

I think you could include Rodriguez-Seals the knockout at the end was pretty devastating.
Another that a dude has as a sig .gif is that Lubin knockout over Camacho, you won't see a prettier left hook and it made the dude swim on dry land.
