    Its just when a fighter has taken to much and wants to prevent being KO'd he can take a knee lose the point but get his wind and senses back.

      how do you consider yourself a boxing fan and not know that rule?
      if you are hurt you can take a knee and it'll be considered a KD.

        What makes me laugh about it is back then people played it off like Griffin was acting also.

        I guess the moral of the story is to not get knocked out with a foul because everyone will believe you are faking.

            The Weebler had Ricky Hatton winning against Floyd mayweather at the time of the knockout. That's all you need to know about him.

                    Everytime you do though, it could be considered a KD, Corley did it a lot in his fight with Mayweather, at first Esteban let him get away with it, later on he gave him a count.

                      Yep!!! The outcry was amazing, Roy was Roy at that time and you can imagine how people went on and on about it...Griffin was a frustrating opponent for RJJ and the frustration got to him when he finally had griffin down.
