    I’d say to win by KO is much greater. You’re eviscerating your opponent and ending fights quicker. Much more action packed fights usually end with KO’s and it’s much more entertaining. It’s also much more difficult to pull off.
    If Floyd KOed Manny then it would have no doubt been a greater win.. And the world would have been bowing nonstop to him.
    Instead of some boring play it safe until the end win and land 20 more punches than the opponent.

    When it comes to the greats against greats winning by KO is the greater win as it is harder to pull off against another great.

      To win by ko is better. That's why deonta y can be called the best with the least boxing ability.
      They will only say fury is the best when he officially beats deontay. Floyd was always given favours though, considered the best by out pointing everyone

        Technically a fighter is

        'awarded a decision'
        vs
        'being victorious by way of knockout'

        One is more subjective while the other is absolute.
        It is better to win by knockout.

          That's a damn fine way of putting it.

            He landed like what?
            11 more pillow jabs?
            Those Compubox numbers were completely false too.

              Definitely a KO. Its crowd pleasing. It builds your brand. There are no judging contorveries.

                TKO or corner stoppage is the most convincing. Cant say u just got caught

                  KO/TKO is supposed to be the name of the game. Point fighting is looked down upon in most combat sports.

                    Where’s the Floyd fanboys?
                    Lol, they stay in Pacquiao threads but can’t debate this logic here.
                    They know!!
