    Also not going to post it but the only time i saw the Pintor vs Owen knockout, made me feel sick especially knowing that owen died from his injuries. R.I.P. Johnny Owen.

      Terrible reffing there.
      He was defenseless for several seconds.

        Probably the most brutal seen on TV was Griffith vs Paret.
        Paret was propped up against the ropes so couldn't go down. Ref and corner allowed some 22 punches after Paret was out of it.

        Boxing was in effect banned from TV for a couple of years. It was really Ali that brought it back--for one reason or another.

          In no particular order:

          Tyson Vs Tillman: Punch knocked him out to the forehead
          McCallum vs Curry: The original zombie ko
          Jones Jr vs Serwano
          Ruddock vs Dokes (fight should've totally been stopped)
          Jefferson vs Harris (Another Zombie ko)
          Jack Johnson knocking out Tommy Burns (absolute brutality)

                That fight should have been stopped 2 seconds earlier.

                Did you ever get the feeling that some of these small refs are afraid to jump in till the guy goes down?

                  I wouldn't want to catch Tua's left hook either. Fućk that.

                    Crazy, I was showing some kids at work the Griffith vs. Paret ko today. That will always be the most brutal knockout ever.

                      can't remember exactly what was said but there was a replay shown of the KO, and it was a bit awkward..
