I've watched that "KO" sequence many times in slo-mo, freeze-framing it on several occasions. There's no way to convince me that blow had enough on it to disorient Solis. It appears that Solis's leg(s) might've displayed injury as he backed up after the tap to his head.
Whatever really happened, Solis embarrassed himself. He was fighting well, then took a bizarre turn into irrelevance.

Originally posted by Frogs! View Postit has to be the weight that he was able to or lack thereof on his right leg that caused that left leg to slide like that.
similar to stepping on a pavement that turned out to be lower on the ground than you expected.
Solis crouched very low, trying to avoid Vitali's right. (Which is another thing; he obviously saw the punch coming.) It's possible that the injury occurred at that very moment. Are they saying he suffered injuries to one, or both, legs?

Originally posted by CubanGuyNYC View PostYes, but that's his left leg that slips. Solis was clutching his right leg after he went down.
Sequence of events: Solis charges Klitschko, throwing several punches that don't land. Solis's left leg appears to slide before Klitschko lands a grazing punch to the top of his head. Solis's left leg again appears unsteady as he backs up from Vitali's counter. Solis goes down and clutches his right leg in apparent discomfort.
