Woah…. the sound from his head thumping the canvas was just not right.

Wow, THAT is a KO.

And Manfredo of all people.

Unexpected to say the least.

The best part I think

is how he just walks away nonchalantly, as if it’s no big deal.

Vogt early, Vogt often.

that is how you are supposed to react when you get a knockout like that.

That's what i was thinking too

Like calmly disposing of your bat when you hit an upper-deck shot. It looks much cooler than hopping up and down like a maniac.

is that the same manfredo who was slapped to death by calzaghe?

amazing KO + nonchalant walkaway, though the bhop “neck slice” (forgot the official name) taunt was a bit in bad taste.
