Was this a Knock down?

[Bozo_no no]

While Spinks slipped about 8 times in their fight, this one (out of them all) looked to me like it was a knock down.



Should this have been scored a knock down?

It looked like he was waaay off balance but that right to the ribs looked like it made him go down so yes.

[TheEvilSaint]

yeah, that was a KD. that ref who called the fight missed at least 4 KDs that he didnt rule.

mayorga shoulda won that fight.

I would have scored it a KD.

[luisillo22]

with out a doubt I would have score that a knock down for sure.

[Bozo_no no]

Funny that those who have voted no haven't said why it's not a knock down.

Funny thing is the official scoring in this fight were

117-110, 114-112 (both for Spinks) and 114-114.

If this knock down would have counted (as it should have) I think it would have been a draw, or an SD for Mayorga.

There were also two instances in the fight where points were taken away from Mayorga on very suspect calls.

It does not look like a legitimate knock down. Spinks was of balance and got pushed.

[Bozo_no no]

It does not look like a legitimate knock out. Spinks was of balance and got pushed.

1) It's a knock down, not a knock out.

2) Being off balance doesn't mean you get a knock down waived off (see Roy Jones dropping James Toney)

3) Where is this push you're talking about?

Mayorga's other arm is moving away from Spinks as the body shot that drops him lands.

Pretty weak post on your part.

1. I mistyped. Surely, I meant KD.

2. No it does not.

3. His "punch" looks like a push to me while Spinks is being off balance.

4. I do not give a rat's ass.
