      On a scale of 1-10, 10 being a punch that takes your head off, what would you rate that punch ?

      Me, I'd give it a 1.7.

        That literally doesn't matter at all. Tank took a knee. That's a knockdown. End of.

          "Doesn't matter"
          Somewhere between a .06 and a 1 ?

            4) Imagine losing a rd/fight because your glove touched the canvass.......

            "Technically" everyone who is upset is "right"....but, cmon. It would have ranked as an ATG cheesy KD.
            It’s irrelevant.

            If a fighter takes a knee, for any reason, a knockdown. It’s very simple.

            You aren’t allowed to just take a knee and have a time out or break in the middle of a boxing round hence why it’s scored as a knockdown.

              Can the judges not score it if the ref doesn't call it?

              I scored it a KD anyway ... was that wrong to do technically, given the ref did not call it?

                If Tank was buzzed in any way, there was plenty of time for LRJ to finish him off.
                A 2 second time out would not be enough, if Tank was trying to buy time to recover.

                I feel people dislike him enough where even a non incident like this, coupled with the huge odds in his favor (1800) can make fight fans fume.
                quit trolling!!!! or else u dont even understand boxing AT ALLLLL LOL

                  ​I agree that Tank is disliked and undefeated so people are making a big issue out of this.
                  I personally think the ref as well as most of us watching were confused in that moment.

                  Laughing emoji = childish.
                  You wouldnt want to get credit for a knockdown without landing a punch? I dont buy that and id say thats a pretty cheesey argument.
                  His glove didnt just 'touch the canvas'. He chose to touch the canvas in order to stop his opponent from punching him.

                  Everyone is right because 'technically' it was a knockdown.

                  You choosing to ignore the first part of that post and focus on the second part makes your objectivity questionable.

                  It's very childish, wouldn't you say ?

                  We disagree

                  Youve been childish throughout this.

                      Yup, no timeouts in boxing, take a knee, it's a knock down.

                      Team Roach needs to file an appeal asap.
