    You seen unable to grasp that the fight didn't end because of Kens illegal punches, it ended because of Durans.

    I don't want anyone to benefit from the breaking of rules lol, what a weird interpretation.

    He had to put hands on Duran as you yourself conceded. He knew it was an illegal exchange yet still deemed it a ko.

    It went down how it went down, and it doesn't sit right with me.

    Why would I award Ken the fight by ko if he knocks Duran out with a punch that lands after the bell? Are you following this conversation at all?

    Yes if a fight ends via illegal punches it should be an disqualification or a no contest. It certainly shouldn't be a ko.

    Not really. Even though Ken had his moments, it was pretty one sided.
