    It was only a technical knockout, but Brewster - Golota was very impressive.

      That counts as a knockout also.

        I would also like to add Rid**** Bowe - Bruce Seldon to the list. Both were undefeated as they met and once again the boys were seperated from the men.

          That was just embarrassing. Seldon showed what he was made of there. I'm not Mike Tyson or nothing, but I would've atleast tried my best to win.

            I know what you mean, AS, Seldon just didn't have the chin (or will). That right hand from Bowe was crushing, but many boxers would have been able to take it without going down.

            What did you think of Mesi - Williamson?

              Seldon was maybe the worst heavyweight titlist of all time. Atleast Ruiz had some balls.

              I remember watching that fight and Jim Lampley proclaiming "They call it star quality, and Joe Mesi just prvided a bunch of it". I remember thinking "Damn, I picked Mesi in 4". Really, that meant nothing, but it was good seeing Mesi provide something that would make us want to see him again. It was never a secret Williamson lacked a chin. I remember watching him in an amateur fight (Not sure if it was the Nation GG or Olympic trials) and he got knocked cold in the first. It wasn;t a big surprise that he got flattened, he stands straight up and against a puncher you're going to get hurt.

                  I can actually recall the commentary.

                  Jim Lampley: "Ruiz is rocked in the first 20 seconds of the bout, down goes Ruiz, he takes a vicious left hand shot on his way down and I don't think he's going to get up"

                  Larry Merchant: "WHOA!"

                    For Tyson:

                    Tillman was knocked out in the first..this was payback for Tyson losing in the amatuers to him

                    Alex Stewart, not sure if he was undefeated, but he almost **** his pants when he saw Tyson

                    Marvis Frazier, Tyson almost took this poor kids head off

                    Spinks was the best though...Spinks was undefeated, considered by some to be the "legit" Heavyweight Champion, and some favored him.

                    Can't think of the other ones off the top of my head....

                    ..................................

                    Lennox Lewis knocked out Andrew Golota in the first...I remember this because I thought this was going to be a good fight, I was wrong.

                    ..................................

                    Did you guys see my post of Foreman vs Roman????

                      Stewart was 26-1 with 26 knockouts. He had lost to Holyfield.
