    Look at this poor *******. As the old saying goes, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry...

    Big KO, but worse, as the bugger is in space land, he keep's throwing punches!

    I don't know why but the idiot ref goes the full count! The only thing the fighter was counting was zzzz's!

    Similar as the ref in the Choc Ottke fight, why on earth did he put the full 10 count on mUndine?

    From about 2.40 onwards this footage between a very courageous Richard Dunn and Ali is a mix of comical and sad.

    Firstly there's Dunn's attempted jab off one knee - referred to by the commentator as Charlie-Chaplin-like. Later there's Ali starting a round by pointing to the canvas, showing Dunn where's he's going. Ali not only carries his threat off in that same round, he's still winding his arm around and around long after Dunn is off with the pixies:

    CHB , I recall that day like it was yesterday lol i was a school boy who had just earned two half hour sessions of detention after school for talking about the fight in class ( i was that hyped ), this fight was shown live on TV , Dunn showed a fantastic set of nuts in that fight but **** what a difference in fighting class Ali was ? . Dunn got KTFO in one round by Aussie Joe next fight .

    Stupidity of KO / TKO. If ref didn't apply full count, it would probably be ruled TKO.

    When the Ref starts becoming more concerned with the winning fighters TKO/KO record, then he's no place in the games.

    True. Some refs tend to be pedantic.
    Maybe they think downed boxer needs a lesson in counting?

    Maybe he was just counting to see how long it would be before the corner and house Doc offered some assistence... So kind of him to leave the mouthguard in, especially with the fallen man still in 'his own little fight'.
