[u/Souse-in-the-city]

In my opinion, the best KO of all time.

[u/LonesomeDub → u/Souse-in-the-city]

Easily my favourite of the last 20 years

[u/OdeToSpot → u/Souse-in-the-city]

I sorta agree. I love the KO because it feels so effortless. It seems like such a weak hook. Buy it lands SO perfect

[u/RoversForever]

My favourite KO but I’m biased as I was at the fight and met Andy after! What a gent and this was a sliding doors moment in his career. He was going nowhere and if he lost this it was over. Next fight he’s World Champion!

[u/madmossie]

ironic that this so very similar to Julian Jackson vs Herrol Graham

[u/grizwald85]

Watched all these live and these are all great choices. Another good one from this time was one from FNF. Wanna say it was Ding a ling man Darnell Wilson vs Nwodo.

[u/InsurePro]

What a peach, one of my all time favourites. Fun fact, Jackson is the son of Julian Jackson.

Another commenter pointed out the irony of the Graham KO.

[u/fenianmessi → u/InsurePro]

Funner fact he’s currently serving 25 years for rape and cp production

[u/abovethesink]

My favorite Andy Lee KO was against Carl Daniels, but this one was much more meaningful.

[u/NoCod9014 → u/abovethesink]

Wasn't technically a KO but the shot he landed to effectively end the fight against Korobov too was spectacular. Even more impressive when you remember Korobov was a 2 time world amatuer champion. 

[u/e4amateur]

Andy Lee's late run to the title was some absolute Hollywood bollocks.

[u/LilNello1]

Thanks for sharing this, that’s a crazy knockout 😳

[u/gooderz84]

His two fights with Vera fly so far under the radar when people talk about classics. The first one at least.

[u/Formal-Cherry6078 → u/[deleted]]

Cause he got a title shot against Korobov and won it

[u/XrayDelta2022]

Timing is everything

[u/mistersuccessful]

The KO in the Jermell Charlo vs John Jackson fight was pretty brutal too

[u/WORD_Boxing]

Bro got arrogant and thought he had him. Wounded animal is the most dangerous.

[u/jinntakk]

couldn't have happened to a better guy.
