    Lets say the bout was not so weird and had gone on with Luisito winning the first round by the judges word, how do you think the fight plays out?

    What a weird fight. Are there any other fights with extreme "delayed reaction" endings like this? I've been trying to think of any, but I'm coming up with nothing.

    No clue- It always struck me as weird, very fishy or perhaps it was a freak moment, surely no one would throw a fight like that it was too obvious to be fake but maybe Galaxy was counting on that? :sisi3:

    For me Espinosa just showed that he had phenomenal punching power, but there was also the physical condition of Khaokor which showed his limits he suffered from epilepsy the fight was really dangerous at this point in his career. Khaokor took a left hook to the temple, a violent blow to the liver and that's why we had this terrible knockout.

    Khaokor Galaxy suffers from Wolff-Parkinson-White disease.

    His KO defeat against Espinosa was widely criticized, he fell unconscious with a stiff jaw, eyes turned while unconscious and without realizing what happened, all with a blow that he barely grazed him even if it is a KO in slow motion because he received a blow to the chin before.

    He also suffers from spasmophilia since he was very young. Which also surely explains this KO with this stiffness and this very late KO.

    The KO is obviously not rigged but it remains a great boxer Khaokor Galaxy having beaten the South Korean Moon Sung-kil who appears top 5 and even sometimes top 3 in the specialized rankings of boxing magazines.

    He ended his career not because of this defeat but he had a car accident with his twin 2 months later after his KO defeat against Espinosa.

    So Khaosai Galaxy his twin came out unharmed without a scratch, Khaokor Galaxy was in the hospital severely injured and became aware of the fragility of his body and retired from the rings.

    Never Espinosa or Khaokor would have fixed this fight, both are great boxers and especially both boxers were very popular in their respective countries real superstars.

    And of course without all his problems during that fight Khaokor for me will be the winner by UD.

    Yeah, it was a weird one. The only, similar example I can think of is in MMA, between Edson Barboza and Shane Burgos.
