    What kind of amateur-hour headline is that ESB?

    Butt-hurt reporter, much?

    How about you read the article? It says at the end of the article;

    "I wrote about Anthony Dirrell stopping his opponent with a low blow last night, and I hate repeating myself like this. Anthony Dirrell dominated his opponent, and would have stopped the man without the low blow, but the referee should not have started a count. In this case Khan was also dominating his opponent. But the shot, while
    questionable, landed on the belt line and the referee made a fair decision in starting the count. Steward said, 'It wasn’t below the belt, it was on the belt, so legally it would be a low blow, but I don’t think it did that much damage.' HBO’s unofficial score keeper Harold Lederman emphatically stated in response, 'The shot should be
    legal… He hit him on the belly button; there is no doubt about it.'"

    The point is, it's below the where the referee said was okay to hit, so it's a low blow. He never said anywhere in the article that the ruling was incorrect or took anything away from Khan.

    Zab shouldn't have worn his beltline so high up. That **** invites a tactic of claiming a low shot. Looking at the replay and considering where his actual navel would be, it wasn't low

    Headlines set the tone,The writers article hints that Zab was hit with a punch that shouldnt have counted...when in truth we could all see Zab quit and wanted a way out,at 10 he actually got up again,looked fine,then went back to faking being hurt

    I think the authors on this site don't always write the headlines to their articles.
