    2nd round of my kids fight last saturday, the opponent pulled his trunks down during the standing 8 which bought him plenty of time to recover, tuff kid though smart thing to do he was hurt.

    Evander Holyfield trapping Ruiz in the corner after being knocked down and refusing to let go of the ropes, it was funny to see the ref trying to pull him off.

    I know a lot of people on this site don't like to see fighters take a knee but when done at the right moment I've seen it work to a fighter's advantage. One that sticks in my mind was when Lyakhovich took a knee when he was getting battered by Brewster. I thought he was on the way to being knocked out but taking a knee was a smart move. He recovered and went on to win the fight.

    I've never heard of anyone underating Ali's chin, everybody's aware of how good it was surely.

    Best avoiding a KO...???

    Probably one of the Four TImes VITKLIT didn't show up to fight Rahman.

    He was afterall severly injured, in order to make so many postponements.

    Last week I would say...Judah saying he saw 2 fingers when he knew damn well that he could see the ref holding up 3. Now that was smart...

    Rahman to the ref he couldn't see after Toney cracked him with a few right hands when they fought...These fighters are highly intelligent...

    When Diego spits out the mouthpiece it's a reflex, not a tactic. He's done that on more than one occasion.
