The knockout is one of the most exciting and impressive things in boxing. Moments that are kept in the collective memory and that are lived again a again the the fan’s memory. This year there were great knockouts and the WBA remembers several of them.

One of the most outstanding was that of the Dominican Michel Rivera to the Spanish Jon Fernandez on October 30. A straight right to the ear area that sent the Iberian to the canvas in an impressive way and left him with no chance.

Next on the list, we have to mention the welterweight prospect Connor Benn who knocked out Chris Algieri in Liverpool on Decembe 8.  A straight right to the chin scored a big knockout that gave the Brit the victory and allowed him to retain his WBA continental belt.

Another impressive knockout came from cruiserweight Jake Paul, who knocked out Tyron Woodley in a phenomenal fashion on December 18 in their rematch bout. A right hand detonated on his opponent’s humanity and sent him to the canvas in spectacular fashion.

Among other knockouts this year, worth remembering is the one that super middleweight champion David Morrell delivered to Mexican Mario Cazares on June 27, in Minnesota. 

The year 2021 was one of great emotions and good knockouts. The WBA wants to involve the fans in the selection of its awards and that is why it wants to know the public’s opinion through its social networks.
