I'm Amazed How So Many Think Cintron Was "Acting" or Purposely Jumped Out Of The Ring

    When you're 2 years old you learn to put your arms and hands out to brace for a front fall and as you get older you learn to hold onto things to brace a fall, so for Cintron to go towards the ropes and not even put his out to grab the ropes or put his hands out in front of the table then he has the brain/reflexes of an infant!!!!!!!!!!

    PW had just turned the heat up(per game-plan) and this **** happened! PW had hit Cintron with 3 consecutive shots before Cintron caught him with a right!!!

    The funny thing about it is that PW didn't even throw him or push him out the ring it!! Some f**king athlete Cintron is!!!!!!!!1:-:)-:)-(

    When it first happened, I thought he actually fell. Watching the video someone posted up here afterward, I noticed that he didn't even try to catch himself. If you have both hands free, it's a natural reaction to try and grab something. He didn't even put an arm out to stop the fall. Then when you look at his left leg, you'll see that he's clearly launching himself out of the ring. He didn't land hard at all and their legs barely touched enough for him to trip in the first place. Viewing his history, it's hard to give him the benefit of the doubt.

    As for Cintron wanting to continue...:nuthe didn't even attempt to move a muscle unless he was paralyzed god forbid you'd automatically try to even adjust yourself.

    At the exact moment Cintron jumped out of the ring Margaritoe was knocking down Garcia in the first round. Cintron heard that the winner has got to face Margaritoe. Coincidence? I think not.

    I don't think he jumped purposely, its not like he was taking a beating, he was in the fight, and he had landed the cleaner shots.

    I was at this fight which took place 2 miles from my house. It was a perfect evening for outdoor boxing. The crowd booed the first 2 rounds where nothing was happening, both fighters playing the waiting game. Round 3 was better. Round 4 had great exchanges and the crowd was beginning to go crazy. Then the fall.....

    Williams and Cintron were all tangled up and got spun around. Paul hit the canvass real loud and Kermit tripped over Paul's legs and flew out the ring. People went crazy from the action! When they realized Kermit wasn't getting up and saw a stretcher being brought in the crowd started booing. They booed some more when watching the replay.

    I was booing too thinking Kermit jumped out on purpose for the drama effect. It's funny the crowd would initially cheer Kermit for falling out, then boo him while he was being carried out on a stretcher.

    Today after I had some time to think about it, here is my take on the situation. I've tripped and fallen numerous times in my life. Sometimes to try to brace for a better landing or avoid a worse fall, my feet and legs natural reaction is to take an extra step or jump, so the body is in better position upon landing on the ground. When I look at the replay now, it seems Kermit was trying to clear the ropes so his legs don't get tangled up. By doing this he has maybe a better chance of controlling of his landing.

    I think I speak for most of the people that watched that fight live... that I was not really upset at Kermit for the dive he took, but rather for the price we paid for admission and parking, and only got to see half of a good round.

    BTW, Kermit wanted to keep fighting, but was told no by the ring doctor, who saw the whole thing from just a few feet in front of him.

    Here's a picture I took with Paul Williams and his team looking on to see if Kermit was ok.

    I wonder if Dirrell will use this tactic in future fights if he starts to run out of gas or gets hit hard.

    Dirrell's a well known **** but he boxed great against Arthur.

    Why did he have to pull the fake seizure, it was a DQ anyway
