The "KO" of Thompson - devastating KO or just a Seldonesque dive?

[Duke McKenzie_]

That guy would have made Mario Cawley blush last night IMO. After taking a rabbit punch (so should it have even counted?) he finds himself a nice comfy spot on the canvas after looking sorry for himself for 18 rounds. Then he lets himself get counted out.

But I come on here and it's stuff like:

OMG OMG OMG that was so KEWLLLLLLLLLLL! Did you see Wlad just like TOTALLY obliterate that guy?? Wow, Wlad is my favorite, that was just, like, totally AWESOME!!!!!!!

So now I'm not sure what to think. So I've made a poll so we can find out what's what.

Rabbit punches typically land on the back of the head, not on the face.

On the angle on my broadcast it was the back of the head.

Thompson was in survival mode yet came forward and landed more punches on Klitschko than anyone else had previously?

Was this a Sopcast broadcast? I was watching on Hi-Def HBO and saw a right hand straight that landed on Thompson's face.

I didn't post any of that ****, but I think Annie didn't see the far-side camera angle. From the near side it looks like it landed on the shoulder. From the far-side you see TT's head snap just as he opens his stance. Perfect KO timing and placement.

That punch landed flush on the jaw, Annie.

[Silencers]

That punch landed right on the jaw.

The Duke's taking it right down the pipe in this thread.
