    This was a knockdown, yeah it may have been on the bell, he was maybe caught with his feet together but it hurt Tua the clip cuts off and goes to the replay at the point where the camera shot shows Tua looking hurt after the fight. Very reminiscent of the Savon ko of him.
    It goes to show anybody can go down and be hurt if caught at the right moment and balance.

    Rahman should have got the decision in that fight.

    He was off balance, his feet were together, and he was hit cleanly. He wasn't seriously hurt.

    No no nooooooo. Rahman totally outboxed Tua for the first half of the fight and faded somewhat late. Tua did **** for the whole fight and only when fatass Rahman slowed down could you even give him a round. Rahman deserved to win that fight then be fined for inactivity and Tua should have been told to fight like a real fighter or retire. It's amazing how much people will put up with from such a lazy, boring fighter just because he had a few quick knockouts years and years and years ago.

    I agree Tua was out boxed that night, the only thing Tuas really got is one punch power and a great chin. He seems to fight lazy in the ring and can be out boxed by just about anyone. Even if Tua would somehow knockout Wlad and win, I dont see him holding the title long maybe a defense or two.

    That shot was way passed the bell and it did not look like it hurt Tua at all.

    Thats because the guy that put the clip up edited out the shots of tua afterwards. He did look hurt while back in his corner, he certainly knew he lost the fight before they announced the ridculous draw result.

    I saw the fight, Tua was dead tired (wich is his own fault) and yes the draw was nonsense but the point was Tua being hurt or not and he definitely was not.
    Off balance shot after the bell that is all there is too it.

    He was clearly off balance, after he threw an uppercut.

    Rahman held the whole fight and should have been warned. Repeatedly.

    Tua should have lost to Rahman in both of their fights
