R.I.P. To The Marvelous One Marvin Hagler 🙏😞🕊
I was at the De La Hoya fight with my dad and I remember it so well. It was the under card for a Michael Carbajal fight and if you grew up in Phoenix and were a boxing fan he was one of the biggest names in the state. We were all excited to see De La Hoya as well and we couldn't wait to watch him dominate then when he got dropped we all just had our mouth open in shock, we just couldn't believe it. Then when he quickly got back in it we all went nuts. My dad passed away from cancer in January but this brought back good memories with him, we watched so many great boxing fights together, and it's the one thing I'll miss with him gone.
I'm sorry for your loss James. Its all about those memories ... Cherish them ..Maybe even hang a picture of that fight on your wall idk why that thought hit me but i digress wishing you all the best from Virginia
DLH needed to stay sub-welterweight. He had exceedingly fast hands, but didn't have power at welter+. Welter he was okay.
98 9u9
James M, what a great personal sports memory to have!
Sorry to hear this.
The KO from Tyson it' s like stopping a train with your head. The guy has never been the same
🤣🤣
Like getting punched by a bank vault.
@@ZENIGMATV exactly
Damn, that describes it best.
Ten days later...ouch.
The first power punch Morrison caught was from another planet!
That right it was
He got better at taking a punch. But he was a dangerous guy to fight. Lights out power. A left hook as good as Joe Frazier. Arguably better. He was no joke.
Wow!!!!
Morrison could punch, but he always had glass chin
Butterbean was always fun to watch. Just loved how even though he may not have had a physique of a powerhouse boxer like Tyson, he had absolute sledgehammers for hands.
Butter bean is a short, fat Deontay Wilder. Nothing but flailing haymakers from those short, fat T Rex arms. Had he ever fought ANY fighter with a semblance of actual skill, someone would have killed his fat ass...
Moved pretty good for a heavy dude
The dude he knocked out here was the first guy Tyson fought after leaving prison
19:01 best KO
they should have slowed it down too from the instant replay
i was just about to comment this lmao 🤣
Nah 5:30 or 15:33 are the best.
The folks in the back at the beginning who think Morrison has it in the bag make it so good.
:D
19:02 that guys pants weren’t ready for his celebratory jump 🤣🤣🤣
Crack kills…
Lmao!
🤣😂😅
🤣🤣
"Rattled the brain around inside that skull" You'll never hear an announcer say that today lmao
Why not?
Yeah that shit was funny
@@PassportGang cause money.
Tyson could've easily taken at least 8 slots from the title of this.
That, and the clip they showed was nowhere near being Tyson's best 1st round K.O.
@@A_Final_Hit but that punch was pure savage. i know one or 2 more like this when he really punches his ultimate power punch. one was vs botha and the other dont remember right now.
He could've had all 15 lol
Duuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
@@chriswelcome8102 always 1 azz huh?! You didn't even have to waste your time to type that bud. You can read, maybe not comprehend, but you you can read I love ya whether you're genuine or not though bro. Now "Watch Timmy run fast! " gtfo my comments.
That Michael Nunn left hook knockout was the sweet science of Boxing.
Truly indeed....Bro landed on the canvass and thought he was dreaming about his vacation in Paris....😅😂😂😂😂
I remember watching Marvin Hagler's matches with my dad and sister when we were growing up. He had some solid bouts back then.
Yeah, I forgot how clean his punches were. The sharp body work forcing the opponent to drop his guard was amazing.
i remember seeing mike tyson bite holyfields ear. i was like 11. lol
Same here, watched them 80's era fights with my dad. Hearns was always my favourite, but Hagler was a fine tuned wrecking machine.
Hagler is IMO the greatest boxer of all time. The Hearns fight was epic.
I love this list. Lots of great fights, and not the typical ones everyone posts. Thank you!!
🤗🔥🔥
Yep, and not only heavyweights. Apart that, Mayweatehr's behavior was so disgraceful.
@@rengast9331 you should learn the history behind that fight then
Jk) ..
I wish that my father had lived to see the Internet. He used to love watching boxing. He would have enjoyed this.
I loved to watch Boom Boom Mancini box. He loved going toe to toe and had some of the greatest fights. He fought a South Korean Duk Koo Kim for his WBA belt I believe that went toe to toe for 14 rounds. It's was a brawl up to Boom Boom knocking him out and then Kim having to go to the hospital and died five days later. Boom Boom never was the same after that and I found out later that on Duk Koo Kim's dressing room door he had put up a sign in Korean that said Kill Or Be Killed. That alone tells you how intense that fight was. I'll never forget it. Two warriors
It's also the reason title fights dropped from 15 to 12 rounds. The referee also committed suicide blaming himself for Kim's death.
Boxing is great fun but is much too destructive to the brain to justify its existence. RS. Canada
You could make this entire list with Mike Tyson only.
The ref's face during the Bentt/Morrison fight always cracked me up
Yeah, what the hell does he keep doing. Maybe he was at the dentist earlier in the day.
He looks like a fan of a good old-fashioned @$$-whoopin' just like the audience. 🤣😆😅
That shot Zepeda delivered on Vargas was clean af
And fast too coz he didn't notice it coming.
cooochie sniff
The follow up to finish the fight was brutal
Man Peter McKneley was never the smartest of fighters but that KO from butterbean was just especially dumb
Butterbean was MUCH tougher than most people think. He took 5 of Mike Tyson's hardest punches, and still kept going.
@@ricktaylor3748 butterbean never fought tyson
Yes mike Tyson vs Peter Mcneely in 1995. I watched boxing on tv when I was a little kid. Mike whooping Peter in 1 round. Peter was good aggressive and engage to him but mike got him back.
People sleep on butterbean. He had an iron chin. And heavy hands. Just look at the eyes of the people he hit.
@@ricktaylor3748 Tyson and Butterbean never fought
The first power punch Morrison caught was from another planet!. Butter Bean was a monster! His size speed and power was superb..
The punch by Michael Nunn (#5) was perfect. He clearly had studied the other guy. His footwork shows his anticipation of an opening. Boom. Love it.
Nunn P4P one of the hardest punchers and best boxers in the history of boxing.
Yep I agree that was my favourite too it’s sweet as you like .
That man is Sumbu Kalambay. He beat the likes of Herol Graham, Mike McCallum, Steve Collins, Iran Barkley and a close loss to Ayub Kalule. This was the only stoppage of his career
Actually, the effect was great, but the punch was pretty amateurish. Nun’s punch started from way too far back and took a long time to deliver. That KO was more because his opponent left himself unprotected and left his head in one place for way too long.
@@SignalCorps1 We agree on those points. It’s likely two perspectives of the same thing. Moorer found his opponent’s rhythm & tendencies and knew he could set him up for, at the very least, a potential haymaker/KO shot. I don’t particularly like Moorer as a champion though, and neither did the 46-year-old grill master that clocked him on the chin that time. :)
7:49 - My man said "wait....gimme a second"...but he took 10
Morrison vs Bent, that turn around was insane. Bent literally absorbed everything Morrison gave him then just unloaded.
Morrison always had a glass chin. He punch up close but was more hype that an elite boxer
Heh heh heh. Even the bias sounding commentator was stunned😂😂
@@SignalCorps1 Morrison was a bonafide contender and champ, a very good boxer-puncher and had a very dangerous left hook. But you’re correct: He did have a glass chin. So did Lennox Lewis.
The ray Mercer KO was more vicious
@@danieleyre8913 yeah, you’re right. Morrison never quite made it to the top but he was a very good fighter and he was exciting to watch, but it’s difficult to last very long as a heavy weight with a glass chin.
I noticed that most of these KOs are from back in the days... Respect 🥊👍
That's because this is an old TOP TANK tape. The company fell off in the 90s. They have a recent resurgence
The Zepeda vs Vargas knockout is so satisfying especially considering all the trash talking Vargas did leading up to the fight.
He look like he talked plenty trash
Jose Vargas will never ever live this down 😂
Bro got anime punched in the corner😭
"Josue" Vargas
@@rauljimenez9849 who cares
@@aliabdelaziz905 U commented about him but now said "who cares" lol. 🤦🏻♂️
🤔deverian hacer un video de todos los que volvieron a ser igual despues de ser nokeados 🤔no existe🥊
Think what you want about him but Butterbean was no joke. Such power.
I believe he was nicknamed king of three rounders
Dude was the definition of "I'm not fat I'm just big boned"
@@TA-hf6si 4
@@TA-hf6si It was actualy King of the 4 Rounders but you're right 😁
I mean he only fought crap fighters
Number 9 will always be my favorite 🔥
Tommy Morrison RIP😔
Most overrated fighter ever seen
@@donovanwilliams29 pro boxing is rigged.. they're all overrated
@@desktorp What does it have to do with this guy being the most overrated boxer in history. Boxers like Mike Tyson, Holyfield weren't overrated. This guy was definitely overrated
@@donovanwilliams29 lol how are they objectively any different? You think Tyson and Holyfield careers weren't propped up on the same journeymen meatbags with the same fraudulent promoters marketing their names on tv? Not overrated? People gush over Tyson to this day. I don't see any Tommy Morrison video games, youtube channels, etc. If anything, Tyson would be the most overrated. He's a household name because of effective marketing, plain and simple.
@@desktorp Mike Tyson and Holyfield are real boxers nothing overrated about them. Morrison was an overrated bum and hype job. The biggest one in history of boxing. Period
Even though it wasn’t actually a boxing match, the Butterbean v. Bart Gunn from WWF will always be my favorite Butterbean knockout.
these knockouts will go down in boxing history forever! Tyson is number one as always
The thumbnail got me laughing out so loud my cats will probably not show up until next week.
7:45 slow motion of Lopez putting Menard OUT before he falls like a tree & succumbs to gravity... He was coming to but, can't get off the canvas. It's best he doesn't get up because he just needs a day or two to clear the sleep dirt out of his head. What a clean shot.
Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini. Haven't heard that name in a long time. Rock and Roll!
I didn't realize just how many of these fights I'd seen until this compilation. Hagler was my favorite fighter in the '80s and I was glad to see him on this list
3:40 love the trash talk by the commentary about Barrett and then he just compelety demolishes his opponent
That Lopez knockout with the slow motion fall 👏
Tyson's definitely an One Punch Man.
Ol’ Butterbean had more heart than most fighters.
How? He fought literally no one of note...
Imagine training a lot of months in the gym just to get TKOd by your opponent on the first round
6 months to be precise no sex gym 2 times a day everyday stick diet then u don't last 60 seconds lol
8:35 "when you fall directly on your face...that's power!' yea, the power of gravity.
Knock out number 10 was world class 💪💪
That Caveman Lee knockdown versus Hagler has to be one of the strangest ever! Looked like he was defying gravity with some weird shit.
I love the way Monty had the Commentary team eating their words😂😂🤣oops🥴
Marvelous Marvin Hagler was my favorite fighter as a kid. Nails
19:01 that trainer's butt stole the scene
An almost stole the whole stage too
Top Rank. Please post Mancini vs Frias in its entirety in that quality. Im begging you
15:33 the hardest punch I’ve ever seen land
It’s no way you can unbiasedly say that looks harder then Wilder kos vs Breazeale, Szpilka, or Price.
@@youngmelo3717 the breazeale was brutal but he almost beat the count he kept going the szpilka out him out cold but he was backing up didn’t look to power he timed it perfectly. This Tyson over hand right with all his might is the hardest punch I think I’ve ever seen haha
Well you said because its heavyweight,but did you see Martinez vs Williams?KO punch was so brutal.
You can just imagine it crushed his neck downwards
Marciano V Walcott Rd 13.
Mike Tyson....Wow!
This is a great real I haven't seen before. Nice !!!
i love when the victims go stiff like a statue :-)
Butter Bean was a monster! His size speed and power was superb.
Fatboy Butterbutt wouldn't last 15 seconds in a street fight.
Is that a joke??? Who did he ever fight? He is a short, fat tomato can who fought other, less skilled somehow, tomato cans. He's a short fat Deontay Wilder. He has literally no boxing skill outside of those flailing haymakers with those short T Rex ass arms...
Good stuff ❤❤
You guys forgot Tua vs Ruiz and James Thunder vs that white guy with that one punch, the 1st punch, fight over.
👍.......kzhead.info/sun/lreiYMqFj3qvh3k/bejne.html
Crawford Grimsley I think his name is.
Yooooooo James Thunder tho!!!! I hadn't thought about that name in years
Imagine going from getting a fight against Tyson to getting wore out by butterbean (the goat)
I think a modern first round classic knockout was Inoue-Payano. Two punches and that was it.
Indeed
Mike Tyson the best 💯🥊
19:01 That CRACKS me up... Get it?
Me dio mucha pena cuando vi el triste final que tuvo Tommy Morrison con su vida
love this
7:37 “FORTNITE CELEBRATION” that had me dying 🤣
💪 awesome thumping good video thanks 💖😁
I watched wrestlemania and the Butterbean vs Bart Gunn k.o. was one the hardest hits a human being could withstand. I'm still not sure if bg ever totally recovered from that one! As I never saw him again after that.
Nice to see the concern from Lopez for his opponent
10:43 He just ATE those. Man said this is lunch and sat him DOWN.
wow its so amazing.
impressive !!!!
"Frias better get on his bicycle" "Frias better get into a punch proof car !"
🤣
That thumbnail though 🤣😂😂
That Vargas guy got pummeled
Morrison that's crazy!! Wow!!!!
Great stuff
Tysons knockout punch should be used for any newcomer being introduced to boxing. His power was unmatched, even to this day. Well, i have to say. Roy Jones Jr. was on Tysons level when it came to the power damage they could put onto their opponent. IMO!!!
"floyd's a bit of everybody...." the dancing ability of astaire, the running ability of lewis, the hiding from top competition of no one that ever came before,
Hater! They got resume is impeccable
Mayweather beat 24 diffrent champions in his career casual.Stop hating.
This should have been all MIKE TYSON 1st rd knockouts
It's all very well first round knockouts if it goes the distance can you take the pace
Tyson is the best!!!
McNealy now talks like Cookie Monster from all the blows he endured while having a career in boxing
Great stoppage at 11 👏👏👏
The Butter was something else. Dude had bombs in those hands.
Charlo v Lubin should have been on here... That was way better than the Oscar K.o... Lubin's body completely went stupid in that fight lol
Naoya Inoue is exellent. He is most great boxer.
nice video!
#10 was fantastic
I see Butterbean, thumbs up immediately
Nice
Number 10 was precision and target at it's best. Bruh was laid down to rest.
Talk about a brain rattler, that shot was right on the button. They should've stopped it there.. that's not a shot you recover from in 10 seconds 😂
That 12 guy took a preety good beating and still managed to stay up tho
Brutal sport, but somebody's got to do it
Fight number 11. Bellows was just blown away.
Boom boom, out go the lights....................
7:24 My fav so far
19:01 that was a Moon shot for sure. that was for wBA title.
Tyson and Butterbean could own this whole list. I personally loved Butterbean, Not the most graceful fighter but could brawl with the best. Seriously under rated fighter who could have climb higher IMHO! The guy was a Tank!
Talking about Mike Tyson or that other lame
19:01 the jumping guy 👌😂
Menard did a perfectly executed 10-point textbook FACE PLANT.
"Big" George Foreman KO 1 Jose "King" Roman - 1973. Foreman made his 1st title defence of his undisputed world heavyweight crown and took down 9# world ranked Roman first in just 69 seconds, 4 seconds later he clubbers him down again and then he takes Roman out for good after just 2 minutes of world heavyweight championship boxing. That remained the fastest world heavyweight title KO of all times till Mike Tyson's TKO of Michael Spinks at 1:31 of minutes in 1988. Still non the less 2nd fastest of all times !!!
Buen video, felicitaciones.
The way Morrison hugged the ref lol.
Edgar Berlanga fights EXACTLY like Rocky Marciano with his heavy hands and loaded hooks/crosses - foot placement, toe pointed leverage, and stalking step for step is almost identical. Just compare film and see for yourself. Beautiful!
Roy jones jr knocking out montel griffin should be on here considering the controversy surrounding the first fight. In the second Jr came out with no respect for his opponent, just winging bombs to take him out and he did
Well said my friend, i totally agree with you 100%.
