Danny Williams knocked out Herbie Hide?

Yeah hide has a terrible chin and good power

 

It's pretty believable. Hide has probably been down many times in sparring. He's a guy you don't even need to hit to knockout.

 

I think that the woeful state of Herbies chin is greatly exagerated, he just doesn't like being hit by heavyweights. A 47-4 record is decent by anyones standards even though he has been soundly beaten everytime that he has stepped up to the highest level. I can't believe that Danny Williams needed to "train" to put Herbie down, he would just need to connect - or, as TFFP pointed out, not in some cases....I think that they used to call it "wind of ball".

 

47-4 against who though? His cruiserweight wins are literally a bunch of tin cans, and his heavyweight wins are not much better. He even got KO'd by one of these cab drivers.

Hide had a chance at cruiserweight years ago but he spurned it for big paydays in the heavyweight ranks. That's fine, he made big money for fighting Bowe, but he lost his chance at glory because he was never going anywhere at heavy. Now he's too late.

 

47-4 with a supposed appalling chin is good by any measure, I just don't think that his chin is that bad, he is just a natural cruiser who tried to make heavyweight. As you indicate, if Herbie had concentrated on cruiserweight he would have been a good, solid world champ IMO.

 

Hide was knocked out by Klitschko without a punch landing.... 100% official. He feignted or something. One of the most bizarre KO losses ever... Not like Seldon faking it against Tyson.... Hide Klit was something else.

:rofl I remember that vividly. Apparently the friction between air and glove was enough to blow Herbie over...god knows what would have happened if big brother Klit farted. It would have been like a tornado to Hide.

He wanted out didn't he.

 

reports about who knocked out who in sparring shouldnt be taken too seriously....sparring isnt a proper boxing match.

 

He was OUT though...

 

Nah, he's a good actor. I don't believe it.

 

Oh come on mate.... If he can act to that degree he would be a ****ing oscar winner. No one can rigor mortis in mid air like that... don't believe me try it......

 

He didn't get hit though. This defies physics and logic.

Herbie Hide is the single greatest actor of all times.

 

The friction between the air and the glove :rofl
