Watch Angelo Leo knockout punch absolutely flatten Venado Lopez

Angelo Leo just shut the door on the Knockout of the Year conversation.

With one perfectly placed left hand, Leo (25-1, 12 KOs) left Luis Alberto “Venado” Lopez (30-3, 17 Kos) laid out on the canvas and claimed Lopez’s IBF featherweight title at a boxing event Saturday.

Watch the absurdly nasty KO blow below.

The finishing punch landed a minute into the 10th round with both boxers coming forward. Leo slipped a jab while letting his left hand hook fly and connected with maximum impact on Lopez’s chin. Lopez immediately dropped to the mat, almost completely devoid of movement.

Referee Ernie Sharif stepped in to administer the standard 10-count, but it was obvious that Lopez would not be recovering from the devastating strike.

In the video above, Lopez can be seen attempting to get up under his own power, but stumbling as his attendees attempt to bring him a stool.

Leo, who was fighting in his hometown of Albuquerque, N.M., claims his second world title after previously holding the WBO super-bantamweight belt.
