    At this rate, Cathy Tyson blew him a kiss and knocked him out. Cicely Tyson stroked his hair and iced him. It's legit, it can happen.
    An Indian head massage would have killed him.

    And McCall, the two knockdowns Seldon suffered did not result from any connected punches.

    the Bowe one was funny, seldon jumps up straight away.

    there was one thing seldon was good at and that was ACTING

    Not that good an actor, considering three of his knockout loses are being questioned.

    I saw that a Bruce Seldon appreciation thread had gone to four pages. I wondered why, so I opened it up. Then I realized I didn't care enough to read the four pages of responses. Now I am writing this.

    He was so ridiculous that made his defeats even more embarrassing...

    I wish Bruce Seldon would knock out some of the people who make shitty comments but I would imagine that these same commenters who **** their drawers before he got a chance to kick their teeth in....

    Did Bowe teach Wilder the dreaded "knockout punch to the glove" trick?

    This **** is like the Three Stooges. Jumping up like he's ready to rumble than crawling on the floor like he got gunned down by a sniper. How did Bowe keep a straight face?

    It was a pleasure following his career and watching him develop his dive-artistry. OK, as an actor he was never quite academy award material but he certainly put a lot of effort into his flopping act.
    And remember his fight with Ribalta, he flopped too early, and ended up winning the fight ! .... two amateurish mistakes ... but he kep going, convinced he could dive again one day and make a big splash on a bigger stage.
    I think the Bowe and Tyson flops vindicate his determination to succeed in the world of dive-art, even if his execution wasn't exactly the most subtle example of the ancient craft of tanking.
