    He wasn't counted, but the glove was on the floor ...
    so what do you think ... "floored" or not?

    His gloves touched the canvas so it should have been a knockdown

    Floored can mean, also, if you are hit and it lands or "a floored" is an old, old wooden ship. Like a diversity.

    Knock-down yes, but that didn't hurt Money at all. He just got caught and Judah if only trained a lil more serious would beat Money that night.

    I thought that being knocked down (which comes from punch that knocks down) is stronger than being floored (which may be due to punch but also due to being pushed, imbalanced or anything outside the punch itself) ....
    its obviously a personal definition.

    interesting. judah has faster hands but as usual, he slowed down in the second half of the fight. if he had more heart and endurance he may have been floyd but floyd knew he was gonna slow down

    Well, for Judah it isn't all about boxing, he rather boxes since it makes him look more gangsta. I believe he is more nature gifted boxer than Floyd but he didn't ever trained that hard as Floyd. Floyd getting caught and knocked down is a rare thing to see even if it didn't hurt him at all, still.

    What the ****?! A knockdown, Technically speaking, is when a fighters glove touches the canvas because of a punch, or gets punched and falls over. Same thing.

    Being floored is a real hard knockdown like Tyson-Holmes or Pac-Hatton style. So Floyd wasn't floored. Had he fell over in a brash manner after that right hook then in my opinion it would have been considered floored. But it should have been called, a regular, 10-8 knockdown.

    He wasn't floored, but touched down, and should have lost a point.

    being "touched down" is an interesting alternate option

    Right, aka, it was a knockdown and should be scored as such technically speaking :deal
