Yes
I saw him closing his eyes too. His trainer should have stopped the fight right there but instead he was just telling him open your eyes. I hope he is ok but I think he got a concussion at least.Comment

have to wonder just a little about Kirkland's up and down career -- getting KOed in the 1st round by a light puncher, looking inept for 9 1/2 rounds against Molina while looking like King Kong against Angulo and now Tapia -- hope his almost freakish ability to absorb huge punishment like he did last night is due to great training and fighting spirit rather than something else....Comment

The only fighter that trains harder than James Kirkland is Floyd Mayweather - Hard work - dedication! Truthfully I would like to see James in another fight before he fights a Canelo or (GGG???) - James gets hit, and Canelo is dead on Accurate, the thing with James that's so scary is he smothers you, normally you have to smother the big puncher's punches, but James does that part for you, he just grinds you into dust. The man runs 8 miles a day when training in construction boots - then he drags that tractor tire with the chains hanging from it wearing construction boots, then he jogs behind the pickup truck hitting the heavy bag and speed bag in Construction Boots. See how honest he got when HBO dude asked him about his preparation - Ann puts him through hell and what people don't understand is she does the shyt with him - Ann Wolf is training next to him, not going 100 % but putting in the work keeping him honest..Comment
