Kirk maybe the type of guy like Joe Frazier... weak with respect to punch resistance in the first 2 rounds, but once out of the 2nd, he can just walk through punches.
min 3.28, looked like Cortez wanted a BJ from Kirkland who BTW will probably end up in jail again after this fight.
I swear before the fight I was thinking.... this Asian guy is being served as a sacraficial lamb for Kirkland, I mean 7 KO'S 30 fights WTF? I actually feared for the guys health...Rd 1 and boom the unthinkable. Let me say However that Joe Cortez is a ***** and may have assisted in that KO as he prevented Kirk from getting up
WHAT!?!?!?!?! Kirkland lost in the 1st?!?! I assumed by the thread title that Kirkland wrecked Ishida, which I would have been surprised that anyway! Holy cow!
Kirkland looked really stiff he managed to dodge a punch or two but he showed very little head movement. He looked ok and probbly could have gone on but he did go down 3 times.
you f*cking ******. 3 knockdown rule. cant stand it when people moan about ref's, they are doing their job, protecting the fighters. this isnt the 19th century.
