    Standard trick done all the way from amateurs to very top level. I think I remember even AJ doing it v Wlad

    I understand why Dorticos wanted to buy time.....................he was getting his arse kicked! It's a shame USTV boycotted such a good fight!

    I love watching little veteran tricks like this one. Ultimately it didn't buy Dorticos enough time to recover, and even if he had done he would have likely needed a knockdown or knockout of his own to win, but he might have been waved off after that first knockdown if he hadn't have got those few extra seconds. And how epic would it have been to see him come back Corrales style to finish Gassiev off in the last seconds of the twelfth?
