    Why is the Zab "chicken dance" so funny?



    ^^I mean, it is amusing, but for it to have become the huge, internet boxing sensation that it's become, deemed by many as the funniest KO of all time, is something that I don't understand. You type "Kosta Tszyu" into the google search bar, and it's the first thing that pops up in the results. The man (Judah) got caught and got up too quick, it's that simple. Yes, he looked really awkward falling back down, but obviously his equilibrium was gone. I'm just curious as to what aspect of this TKO is so funny. Surely there have been funnier knock downs/outs, no?

        It's funny because he looks ridiculous. Plus, he (in some ways he deserves it) gets hated on. Also, MAYBE there are funnier knockout, in terms of complete humor, but in this big of a fight and this recent and this popular, nope.

          LOL.. Cedric is what actually made it funny for me. Before hand, it was only slightly amusing.

          So Zab's infamy is what forces people to laugh so hard? I get it..

            I don't think it should have been stopped at that point. It probably wouldn't have made a difference but you never know. The ref should have waited to see if Zab could have defended himself.

            Judah's fault for trying to get up so fast though.

              Agreed.....Judah was undefeated and projected to be a superstar. Then, bam! He ran into Kostya's right hand. But, at least he had the balls to risk it.

                NO what makes it funny is that, if you saw that happen, say in a street fight......

                Someone gets knocked down and then tries to get up and does that ****** ass dance, and falls back down.. you'd laugh, and you know it.

                    Rules are rules. If you fall down twice from the same punch, you automatically lose. The ref. doesn't make 'em.
