Comments Thread For: Logan Paul Intends To Appeal Ref's Ruling, Plans To Fight Again

[elfag]

He should. That was ridiculous. Two points in a six round fight for a guy making his pro debut??? That's like sending somebody to prison for a misdemeanor. Jack Rees missed KSI's knockdown too. If anyone "embarrassed" the sport of boxing it was him.

The ref also counted the knockdown, so that is just 1 point off in the end. And the ref didnt count two different knockdowns by KSI the previous round, atleast one of them was a legit knockdown.

Is Logan going to beg the commission to score the knockdown KSI had in the 3rd? I dont think so.

If a seasoned pro did that I would agree with you. Dan Rafael and others said he should have gotten a warning at best or lost a single point at worst.

Personally, I think he should have gotten a warning. I don't think there was malicious or harmful intent. The rookie got carried away. It also wasn't injurious to the other fighter.

That said I totally agree it was illegal. If the second point was for hitting while down I wasn't aware of that.

He counted the knockdown. So 2 points is the net same as a 1 point.

He also didnt count a legit knockdown by KSI the previous round.

Logan got more than fair treatment by the ref.

Most refs would have DQ'd a boxer over what happened. He lost one point for holding KSI's head in place and landing that second uppercut, which dropped him. That's illegal, you can't hold and hit. And second point was for hitting while down.

I more think it's ironic since thats how BJS won his fight

Maybe I could see a single point being taken, but the we would have another draw and I want nothing to do with a trilogy fight in 2020. Thank God one of them won.

should be 3 points then. hitting and holding, hitting when down, hitting behind the head. he done 2 illegal things with one punch the silly guy, i would of liked to have seen logan win as ksi dont want to fight on.

logan scored a knockdown even though ksi was held. shouldnt the holding mean no knockdown?

I saw two sweet uppercuts. Bam! Bam!

The undercard fighter Billy Joe Saunders? The guy who played a supporting role to this main event of KSI-Logan Paul?

Good Man.

Maybe it should of been a point deduction instead of 2 points etc

Monte Barrett was deducted 1 point for doing something similar to David Haye 'By the way this was David Haye's second fight at heavyweight, where he totally obliterated a solid gate keeper in Monte Barrett. 'David Haye was a better cruiser-weight and heavyweight fighter than Oleksandr Usyk who is completely overrated'.

25 minute 30 second mark approximately.

Jack Rees did great job and missed nada. Paul holded in a hook by left hand KSI's head and hit with his right. That's like placing someone's head to the car and slamming a door at his head.

Paul should be happy Rees included benefit of the doubt for a "pro debuter" and counted the KD while giving only a 2-point deduction for an intentional 2nd foul. If it wasn't his first pro fight that KD could be not counted or even worse for Paul (DQ).

Nobody thinks he did a great job. You failed in the first five words.

Again, which ones? Where was this second knockdown?

Oh yeah. Having the fight taken away from him on a deduction was really fair. I'm sure you'd feel the same way in his shoes.
