    This is damn funny. It isn’t a question of the draw. It is a simple question of should that have been ruled a knockdown. The answer is Yes.

    With the card the way it was Roach would have won if that was ruled a knock down.

    Not one person , other than the village idiot, has said no.

    Yes if we change the reality and facts to suit a pro roach/anti tank agenda, roach should have won.

    If we stick to reality, tank wins!

    agreed!
    Excellent when someone agrees on made up stories what the result would be

    Twink took that knee because was hurt by the jab to the eye

    And I also think the mental pressure of Lamonty Roach getting the better of him and not being able to subdue him or dissuade him with his power was getting to him

    Fights generally get easier for Twink as they progress but this one got tougher and it really looked he didn't want to be there at times

    Why do you have an anti tank agenda?

    It's best to be neutral about these things.

    You've just admitted to having an agenda.

    Don´t forget the right hand that Roach landed right before the jab - it clearly effected Tank, and you could see it in his face. The that little pop from the jab made him take a knee.
    It was clearly a knockdown, but A-side shenanigans continue to muddy our beloved sport.

    You have, you said thinking it should be a knockdown is having an anti tank agenda.

    Yes, the right hand hurt him first and the follow up jab hurt him again. I think it was a combination of having been hurt by the shots and the resistance and adversity he was facing and he momentarily collapsed under the mental pressure of it all and was looking for a way out.

    I believe for that one brief moment he was contemplating pulling a no mas but then he thought better of it. You could see from the way he was reacting to being caught and how he was constantly moving around the ring and away from the fire that he really doesn't like getting hit and his body language and the way he was acting towards his own team when he was in his corner spoke volumes about uncomfortable and concerned he was about what was happening in the actual fight

    So when you said "I agree, it should have been counted as a knockdown"

    And when you said "yes if we change the reality and facts to suit a pro roach/anti tank agenda, roach should have won"

    How should I comprehend that?

    The way I have been explaining it all the way through.

    A) agreeing it should have been a kd but accepting the fact it wasn’t scored as one is not suiting an anti-tank agenda

    B) In the round, it should have been scored a kd. BUT IT WASNT.
    The pro roach/anti tank agenda then claims this means roach wins the fight as they are taking this in a vacuum and applying it to the rest of the fight, assuming there would be no change.

    To be pro roach/anti-tank we need to ignore the fact both fighters were aware it was not scored a kd and possibly a 10-9 round to tank. Roach knew he still needed to win rounds and could have actually tried to score a kd with a solid punch.

    Had a count taken place, both fighters would know it’s a 10-8 round to roach and quite possibly/most likely change the way they fight. Tank would have known he needs to win more rounds and could have actually tried to score a kd with a solid punch.

    So you don't need an anti tank agenda to think the correct call was a knockdown.

    Cheers mate.
