Timber!!!

[Replies: 88]
Everyone likes to see knock downs and KOs in fights...but there is nothing like seeing someone on the ugly end of a "supreme droppage"...such as in Hatton/Pac. You know...the kind of thing that looks like someone should have yelled "TIMBER!!!" right before the punch was thrown.

What are some of your favorites?

One of mine is the James Toney droppage of Michael Nunn...what a left that was, and Nunn dropped like a lead balloon.

That first right hand did all that needed to be done. Norris was in another dimension from that shot. The subsequent others just put him on the canvas in that alternate dimension.

Timber !!!.....at 7:18 of Pernell Whitaker vs Juan Nazario

Timber !!!.....at 2:23 of Max Baer vs Pat Comiskey

Timber !!!....at 3:07 of Thomas Hearns vs Roberto Duran

Timber !!!....at 5:48 of Thomas Hearns vs Pipino Cueves

Timber !!!.... at 8:48 of Sugar Ray Robinson vs Gene Fullmer

Danny "Lil Red" Lopez straight right showstopper
vs Raul Cruz pitched Raul over flat on his face for
the count in 1975 (no video on youtube anymore)

My favorite left hook show stopper was Bob Foster....this one vs Mike Quarry at 3:10

And this one vs Dick Tiger at 1:12

Those last two might qualify more as slam-downs
than as "Timbers" though.

Jesus, GSR could be on his hands from grabbing the barrel, or just putting his hands near the entrance wounds, which most do after being shot...unless it's a head shot...DUH !...;)

Oh OK. I guess I should say, if he killed himself.

Hold on mate it hasn't been determined that Gatti definitely killed himself. Just because the Brazilian authorities have concluded as much, doesn't mean he did, especially pending an independent autopsy whose results are pending.

Ray Mercer's knockout of Tommy Morrison was both vicious and enjoyable.
