Comments Thread For: Leigh Wood Overcomes Near-Disaster To Brutally Knock Michael Conlan Out in Twelfth

I’d like to see replay from another angle. It didn’t look like a big punch that landed

Big right hand landed. Conlan was out cold before another couple of lesser shots landed.

Yeah, I couldn’t tell at first but having watched it back, his body went limp and then he just fell out of the ring

Yeah the right didn’t look like there was much leverage on it.

Elite fighters don't empty their gas tanks throwing haymaykers and pace themselves well so your comment is irrelevant. Conlan didn't stay composed and tried to knock out wood in that last round after pressing the panic button

Listen, it’s simple, it’s biology. This isn’t a DC comic movie where super humans aren’t susceptible to dehydration, exhaustion and concussions. Composure had little to do with this and I don’t care if you’re elite or not. When you’re in with a dog and both are constantly throwing it’s about who is hydrated more to carry crucial oxygen and liquid to key organs. Nothing more, nothing less.

That’s what I thought but i think a good right hand landed that put him out cold, looks that way from what I can see. Definitely need to see it from the other side

Hope Conlan is OK. That didn't look good, but at least he was conscious.

Reminds you what a scary sport this is.

Bellew just said he had Conlan "way ahead" but they showed his card after the 11th and he had Conlan 1 point up

Steve Bunce reckons Conlan was talking on the stretcher

[James Hunt]

Stop it, Tony!
That was legit KD in 11th.

Arguably more concerning than if he was taken out by a big shot.

He just seemed to completely shut down. Like one punch too many kind of stuff.

Tony has to be the most full of shi-it pundit. Can't see past his prefight pick.
