Any legal punch that drives you to the floor is a knockdown even if it got blocked or landed on the shoulder. This definitley was a knockdown but I still think Shawn won like 8-4 and he deserved the decision tonight.

    That guy Ugas has it all except the mental capacity to fight for a world title. He was completely star struck and looked like a deer that got caught in the headlight for a very long portion of the fight. Nobody to blame but himself for all the chances he wasted in the fight.
    Look carefully at the slo mo. His forearm hits Porters arm. The punch didn't land.

      Terrible argument for winning the fight. There's plenty of other evidence that he should have won. This ain't it.

          I worry for the future of the sport if people think THAT is a knockdown.

            The punch caused him to fall to the ground. Knocked his foot from under him. Was a knockdown. Ugas won. Whoever says any different, you should put them on Ignore and never give them the time of day again.

              Those of you calling it a landed "punch". Care to share why you consider a rabbit punch to be a legal KD?

                  Looks like he got the back of his head a bit....but if the ref doesn't call rabbit punch shouldn't it be a kd?

                    I think it did land behind the head , But more so because the angle Porter was moving away at

                    But When the punch landed Porter was in the process of moving his back leg. the force of the punch shifted Porters body enough he wasn’t able
                    To Plant the back leg and that’s what caused it slip out from underneath.

                    Not saying it was a hard KD or anything But it’s because of the punch that had Porter shifting his
                    Body in a way that he wasn’t Able to plant the back foot.

                    To me That’s a KD because Porter hit the canvas as a result from a punch, Not because he just slipped


                    To me that’s a KD

                      Clear slip. No controversy. A warning or point could have been deducted for that rabbit ''punch'', though
