I am blind..

[Siggy]

Anyone have a GIF for the time when Dirrell put AA down for the second time, but the ref ruled it as not a knock-down.

I didnt get to see a replay of that so couldnt see what happend.

No Dorian, you are not blind- Lawrence Cole is...

Thanks alot mate, first time iv seen that slowed down.


What you fellas think about this one, should it off been a knockdown, or does Dirrell sort of push AA with the inside of his arm?

dirrell obviously cuffed him and pulled him into the ropes.
not even questionable.

What Dirrell threw looked like a cross between a punch and a push. A 'push-punch' if you will. And after watching the gif, I say it's very borderline and could go either way...

I must be blind to because that looked like a knockdown

That's exactly the way I feel about it. The fact that there was seperation between him throwing the shot and making contact makes it a punch and the slight follow through kinda makes it a push. Really hard to tell. The call that was made sits with me just fine, but had it been called a KD, I would be fine with that too.

In normal speed however, it looks like a straight KD to me.

In normal speed i thought it was a legit KO.

Seeing it slow-mo it, looks as the ref got it right By saying it was not a knockdown.

[Mr. Invincible]

i trust my own eyes.

Maybe you need glasses or don't understand the rules as well as say..........an expert............just saying.

He was partially tripped due to the positioning of their feet. The punch though knocked him back quickly and sent him reeling at a hard angle. Would he have went without the foot being there? Very possible.

I would not have had an issue with either calling to be honest. It is a hard one to judge.
