2008-09 Kocur Award: TKO or KO of the Year

[Wadubbin]

No brainer..Belak TKo'ing Brash

[devils29]

Have to put my vote in for Belak v. Brash.
Not only was it a good punch, it was a significant punch given how long Brash has gone w/o being KO'd.

No nighty-night KO this year. I went with Souray cause that was the most dominating with the guy the most messed up (with one of the most unusual starts I've ever seen to a fight). Everybody else went with Belak because everybody has been waiting for Brash to get it ever since the McSorley incident. Brash started the season off by jumping the 18 year old Zack Bogosian in his first NHL game over a nothing hit and he played his last game of the season after breaking Blair Betts' face and concussing him with a blindsided and high hit. He deserves much worse. I really wish Belak didn't let up on him cause I know Brash wouldn't have shown any mercy on an unconscious opponent.

No contest here.

That fight caused lots of talk and electricty (and lots of traffic on this forum). I mean, here's Brashear, one of the league's best fighters, fighting Belak (a guy who is climbing up the ranks real fast) and I don't think anybody expected Brashear to be TKO'd. And then, BAM - he went down. Belak gained a ton of recognition through that fight and is now becoming one of the league's best fighters himself. He dominated this year and TKO'ing Brashear is a huge accomplsihment as a fighter. That was a big deal.

The other TKO's didn't cause near as much "electricity" as the Belak/Brashear fight. Easy choice here.

i disagree. i went with the only real ko with souray on weller. he was deff out.

with the exception of his Boris "the bitch" Valabik being the best fighter next year statement i would agree.

[Boogeyman2383]

Wade Belak stole the show

[brandonh19]

This is hands down Belak taking down one of the kings of the nhl fight club.

[NickDoh]

i mean belak is the obvious vote, but as a californian im perfectly comfortable with 'throwing my vote away' ... my vote goes to souray. i just got so giddy tingly as that one developed. how he just pushed his temate aside saying 'i got this' then handling it like he did. that was just awesome in my book. even though yeah, weller wanted him and pointed, but still. STILL...

[Sugden Flu]

I had to go with the Big Albino's TKO of HuggyBear here. That fight really changed the tide of the HW division. It was almost sad seeing The Donald's knees buckle as he fell to the ice. (And I am by no means a Brashear fan.) Times, they are a-changin'!

I don't know how Colby get knocked out by Fedotenko isn't on here. That punch was lights out for Colby, even though neither guy is a "fighter"
