What KO was better?

[HI-TECH Boxing]

Martinez can take a headshots really well. I thought Loma had a good chance of stopping Martinez, but I thought it was going to be by breaking him down with bodyshots.
I'm bias but I say that Loma's KO over Martinez is better.

Just rewatched both, and I stick by what I said earlier.

Martinez was disconnected from his senses.

Khan was flat out disconnected.

Canelo's win was more brutal, Loma's more significant.

But khan had been stopped twice at lower weights

I wasn't impressed at all with what canelo did

Yep, but I'm just answering the question.

OP asks which was better. If by better he means more brutal, then Canelo over Khan. If he means more significant, then Loma over Martinez since that was his first fight at the weight class, and it was for a title.

OP should clarify the criteria IMO, but both good KOs.

I mean which is better in your opinion. Whatever weight you put on brutality or significance is up to you. It could be something as simple as which punch was used or how it looked esthetically. There's no right or wrong answer really.

Canelo, and saying otherwise is a lie.
Kahn was giving Canelo big trouble and it was a very exciting, dramatic fight ended by a visually stunning knockout.

Loma had a quality ko but Martinez was offering him nothing other than a slow right hand. It was clear that Loma would take him out eventually. Again, it was great, but lacked the drama that made the Canelo ko so emphatic.

I'm a big fan of the one and done KO!

Canelo over Khan.

Shock and Awe!

Loma moved up and captured a title in his second weight division, dominating and knocking out the guy in the process.

Canelo fought a guy that caused him some trouble in the fight, and turned it around with a huge punch.

If one was a referee stoppage, and the other was a vicious KO, then I would say the vicious KO is better. In this case, both were "he's not getting up" type of KOs. I liked both equally.


BTW, what's your opinion. Only fitting you give your thoughts on your own question too

Honestly, the moments afterward were the best for me. It looked like he was giving him his last rites!! Lol.

I did...i prefer the loma ko. For the reasons you stated, and because it was a combination...i love how he popped his head up with the uppercut.

Oops, must've missed that post.

Agreed, definitely a beautiful finish by Loma.

Lol I don't think I have a preference between single punch KOs and combination KOs though.
