Smiling after getting punched

[Danny Gunz]

is this like the new thing to do, it seems like everytime a popular fighter gets hit hard now he justs smiles. dot hey do it to look good at the judges or something

it pisses me off for some reason and marg did it almost every time he got hit last night

It is a pretty ****y thing to do. WHat I hate is when Pacquaio gets hit hard he raises both hands and does the pac dance. Now that makes me irate.

[Bhopreign]

It means the punch hurts.

I think it's a reverse poker face. There were times last night when Mosley was killing Margarito, and Margarito just smiled. You wouldn't think he was hurt if you looked only at his face, but looking at his legs would tell you something entirely different.

It nearly always indicate that it hurt.

Guys like Barrera and Morales when they take a good shot - nothing on their face changes at all.

When you smile after being punched it means "damn that hurt".

It's like when your girlfriend shouts at you, and you can't help but laugh.

[Verstyle]

It's a known sign that they felt it, I think they just do it out of saying it didn't. Although that's the universal sign that it did.

I agree that winds me up.

smiling is acknowledging he got you with a good punch. Nothing more! If you watch his fights he's smiled after some hard shots from cotto and cintron. And it's just a little smile towards the other fight. It's not like others when they raise there hands and pretend they are not hurt or wave at the fans. It's obvious margarito just acknowledges a good punch to his opponent and if you pay attention he even nods his head in the process as to say nice shot.
