no offence to the TS...but this is probably the worse thread I've ever read on boxingscene...EVER....it's clear at both 4:18 and 4:24 that Eddie got caught by a hard left hook and as a result got KTFO...and even if it was Wlad hitting Eddies Glove and Eddies glove KO'ing Eddie...then Wlad deserves even MORE credit as he hit something softer than his own hand which then KO'd Eddie. If you put more cushioning onto someones chin and then hit their chin, the chances of KO'ing them is much slimmer.

That punch did not land. When Wlad is throwing the punch, Eddie's guard comes up while he is simultaneously moving back and his head is going back and to the left a bit. The punch never landed folks. The punch hit the inside of Eddie's left glove and Eddie's glove richocheted into his face which caused his head to snap back and that made it look like it was a clean punch. Watch the replays from the different angles as many times as it takes to see what really happened.

To be fair, from some angles it looks like it didn't land.
That said, horrible effort by Chambers, he didn't even try to win. Someone predicted that it would be similar to V Klitschko v Johnson, good call. But at least Chambers had the common decency not to talk **** while fighting scared.

He snapped his head to the side and collapsed face first into the floor. It is a natural reaction to break your fall with your hands/arms. He landed face first, without breaking his fall.
LOL! exactly

Although the TS seems to quite sincerely believe the utter gibberish he wrote, and attempts to invoke the gods to logic to lend some credibility to his claim, his analysis still makes no sense. He claims that the left hook didn't hit Chambers head but the inside of his left glove, which then somehow hit Chambers in the side of the head thus causing the knockout. Is Chambers some freak that his head is actually located to the left of his left glove? Or was the glove attached with elastic to the side of Chambers head so that the rebound caught Chambers whose head then moved (again) to the left? Is this even physically possible? Of course it isn't. And the punch landed.

Whatever it was it knocked the hell out of Chambers. Glad you posted the video because I did not order the fight.
