I'm A Fan Of Usyk But He Legitimately Got KO'ed

The others don't compete at HW, it's different from other weight classes, which is why P4P is nonsense. What would a welterweight version of Wilder look like, he probably wouldn't even be top 100 in the division.

 

It's different, but P4P is supposed to be skill based. HW's are more heavy handed than fighters at lower weight classes, but are not as supremely skilled as fighters from lower weight classes. So, yes you're right, HW is different, and that's precisely the reason why P4P exists, to judge fighter's skills and capabilities regardless of weight.

 

It's a false accusation. I'm not actually a flat earther. What I am is someone who finds it entertaining when flat earthers highlight problems with the globe and challenge the mainstream world view. To blindly accept what the mainstream tells us is to be a sheep. We have those who think that Michelle Obama is a man because of "video evidence". We have those that think the Globe isn't real because of "video evidence". We have those that think a belt-line shot is a low blow because of "video evidence". What do these 3 examples have in common? All see things and believe things based on it. What I do is I remain open minded, objective, unbiased and provide context to not blindly believe anything in a sheep-like manner.

 

That's precisely why P4P is nonsense, you can't directly compare HW's with fighters from much smaller weight classes, but that's exactly what P4P lists do

 

Dude, you're a flat earther.[3]

 

So you’re telling me you believe the photo you responded to showed a “low blow”? Serious question…

 

But nonsense (according to you) or not, P4P lists exist. And are debated by boxing fans. And given that framework, what happened tonight clearly reinforces what I've been saying about Usyk and why he shouldn't be conisdered P4P. Low blow or not, he got dropped by a shot that shows a serious deficit in skill and "defense".

 

I know you are but what am I?

 

the thing that makes it so obvious that the punch was legal is that fighters rarely take that long to recover from a singular low-blow.. because fighters who have fought as long as uysk train on how to deal with that

the reaction you saw from uysk was the reaction of a solid body punch as uysk was throwing and inhaling air. A body shot when landed correctly cripples you and almost temporarily paralyzes you. I rememmber when zab judah fought cotto years ago and tried to do the same thing uysk did.. it was the same reaction

 

Man with respect you said you didn’t watch it, you’re basing your opinion on three still photos from one specific angle. Furthermore the angle of that photo and when it’s paused doesn’t support your position, you’re focusing on just what you feel supports your position, have you looked at the other angles and/or watched the video?

 

And I am well within my rights to reject this nonsensical framework.
