This had so much potential, but they leaned in too far to what they felt was their minor league duty to have an animal mascot.
Imagine this: a cap logo of either a single boxing glove, or two hanging gloves similar to the Red Sox logo, and a wordmark with the gloves hanging off the T in Knockouts. THEN you bring in the dog logos (again, missed opportunity for it not being a boxer breed), and you have a cohesive brand that still feels minor league, but had some class and flair to it. Finally, an alternate cap with the KO and you're one of the best sellers in MiLB.
