Fighters you think took a personal dive.

Yeah, the exact same thing happened in the Cooper fight.

Fake my ass.

 

Whatever, he got knocked down, got up and walked calmly back to his corner with no limp no nothing. In his corner you can clearly hear his people tell him to stay down that he will get another match with Tyson, the implication being more money. Norris, meanwhile, looks embarrassed as hell. The whole thing stank and Norris knew it. Tyson said it himself in the post fight interview when he said Norris started to feel that heat and took the easy way out. Are you also going to tell me he didnt take a dive against Klitchko? Like Norris was some sterling golden child or something? Please!

 

Yeah, funny how it happened when Cooper, another puncher, was giving it to Norris.

 

I just watched the Tyson-Norris fight again and anyone who says Norris isnt faking that injury is crazy as hell. He walks normally back to his corner and paces back and forth before even sitting down. While hes sitting there his manager is screaming from ringside for him to stay down that Tyson should be disqualified. You can see Norris and hes getting instructions from his trainer, he never once says anything about his knee until AFTER he decides to stay down for the round via his managers instructions (who Norris keeps looking over his shoulder to). They were trying to get a DQ win for Norris and another payday. All I can say is if you were indeed in his dressing room and with him for years then you are obviously biased and were privvy to what was going on which was a travesty IMO.

 

That one's absolutely hilarious!

Augustus later lasted 9 of 10 with Floyd - obviously didn't do it the same way though!

 

You just said Walcott took a dive against marciano, which is preposterous considering rocky knocked him down with a legite punch. so how can that be a dive if he is knocked down by a legite punch?


ps I dont have any heroes. and I like Sonny Liston and Joe Louis just as much as I like Marciano, it just no one critisizes Liston around here and Rocky gets all the beef.

 

He was getting **** from the ref all night. Typical hometown crap.

He just wanted out of there. He wouldn't of gotten the decision anyway and he knew it.

 

Even though Michael Dokes looked sharp against Lynn Ball, Ball looked like he layed down a little.

 

No he wasnt,Walcott an inexperienced referee neglected to apprise himself of where the timekeeper was sitting before hand. All Fleischer did was draw Walcott's attention to the fact that the timekeeper had counted past 10,and that therefore the fight was over.
Fleischer hated Ali ? Then how come he refused to strip him of the title when he wouldnt accept the draft? Fleischer in the face of considerable opposition and pressure continued to recognize Ali as Champion,"until he gets his day in court".You are way off base.

 

At the time, or in general? For Lewis not Et because I get the tattoo thing.

As for Tyson. He wanted Lewis to make the millions (According to him).

 

Witherspoon-Bonecrusher Smith II

 

Walcott also claimed that he blacked out from 5-9/10. You can also see he seems fine then looks befuddled on the ground.

 

Nice catch :good

 

I also don't think Fleischer hated Ali but I think keeping Ali as the champ was simply a matter of tradition. The only way a champion should lose his belt is in the ring or if he wishes to vacate it.

The referee is not obliged to pick up the timekeeper's count. It's the referee's count that matters, and Walcott never gave Liston a count.

 

Morales - Pacquiao III.

I died a little inside that night...
