    It doesnt matter if floyd got caught slightly off balance and by suprise thats his own fault. fact is without the punch he wouldnt have touched town!! Knock Down!!!! Just the dosy assed ref missed it thats all.
    I can't agree with you on that because clearly their meet touched.
    I don't understand how people can't see that? I have no reason
    to make this up because it is what it is. I used to think it was a
    KD but at the end of the day I just watched it and to me it looked
    like a slip due to their feet meeting and I can CLEARLY see Zab
    stumble to the right because their feet touched.

    feet touched. I mean the punch caught Floyd but I think
    if their feet wasn't so close together then Floyd wouldn't
    have fell back like that.

    I mean it's ridiculous because fighters get caught by clean punches
    or lose rounds all the time but with Floyd being that he is undefeated
    some go in extra to show that he had a hard time or got schooled.
    When I watched that fight I couldn't believe how Mayweather took
    control and started whipping Zab around the ring until he hit Floyd
    low to get out of the embarrassment. I'm not going to be bias
    about the slip because now that I see it, their feet met and made
    both stumble a lil. Why would I try to front on that? Like you
    said, Zab still got served.

    Zab definitely caught Floyd but that punch wasn't that
    effective because if so Floyd would have went down
    because it landed so cleanly. I can clearly see that
    their feet made contact and both fighters stumbled
    a lil, so contact was made which could have played
    a factor in Floyd glove touching the mat. After Zab
    caught Floyd he stumbled back as well so that means
    if Zab got tangled up then so did Floyd. I'm not going
    to debate this for too long
    because that is exactly what
    I saw. Again, I used to think it was a KD but now I
    can see clearly that it was some contact foot wise
    as well as the punch.

    Thank you. And Zab is circling to his right after landing the right hook to avoid a counter straight right. He is not off balance at all.
