Duran took DeJesus' feet off the floor in their second/third meeting. I was watching something else fairly recently where I noticed this. I think it may have been watching a Whitaker highlight on YouTube.
Foreman didnt lift Frazier off the ground. Frazier got tag, and a movement later, hop up. Dont recall Dempsey doing that to Sharkey. Johnson was faceing a middleweight here, I belive Johnson pick up Burns with his strenght and not with his punchings.
I know what you're saying man!! That thing was just bizarre - call me a bit over suspicious but everytime I watch that fight I'm thinking - is this for real?? What all the bizarre jumping up and down stuff by Frazier??? And the first knockdown Frazier leg dipped down even before the punch arrived?? Wierd:huh I've always thought there was something iffy about what went on in that one but then at least one of the knockdowns looks absolutely for real so god knows??
Now no way am I call it a fix. lol. People sometimes act odd when hit. I think Frazier wanted to stand and go down at the same time, and thus we got the little hop motion.
Id be interested how you would react to a 62yr old Foreman onslaught nevermind poor ol joes 24yr old monster Foreman
3:35 Clearly the punch made him go in the air. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4-WjL8jIyQ[/ame] The one that GreatA posted doesnt work for the reason you just stated. 5:55 You must admit that he got punched into the air. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0RLqeVfxo8&feature=related[/ame] 1:55 - You can clearly see Johnson pulling his arm back from an uppercut. The way his body falls forwards suggest that he wasn't "carrying" him. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyNGH7pFhKM[/ame]
Even just thinking about that fight is making me crack up BOING!! BOING!! BOING!! BOING!!! SKIPPERDY-SKIP!!:rofl
Nope, seeing it again, Fraizer was on the way down, and he hops. Foreman didnt lift him with the punch.
I saw Al [Bummy Davis } hit Oscar suggs with a left hook that somersaulted Oscar Suggs backward into a back-flip knocking Suggs out..What a left hook Bummy had !
Low blow, leaded to the shot to the head cause the knock out with Dempsey vs Sharkey. Sharkey was not relly standy on his feet after that shot to the balls. So I dont count that.
The other two we have to agree to disagree on, but this? You dont count it, because Dempsey hit him low? Who cares if an Alien was in the ring with three heads, the punch still lifted him off the ground
