    May be best to make another poll and simply have 2 options....


    1. Was it a head shot

    2. Wasn't it a head shot

    That is the point being debated.

    That's a good question. I see it as clearly making contact with the head, but, now that you ask, it looks possible that it grazed the shoulder on the way to the head. The video quality is not our friend on this, unfortunately (I realize you're not in control of the video quality). If it grazed the shoulder then whatever power it had would surely have been blunted.

    Hits the top of his head. Ricochets and also makes contact with the shoulder.

    But if you look at Tysons head, it clearly gets pushed back with the punch.

    I think it grazed. Tyson's head is pretty stationary. I don't think it hits the top of his head at all. Maybe his neck at best.

    Well, " thinking it grazed " is a small step to admitting you were wrong i guess.

    The shot clearly stunned him, just look at the reaction just after it landed. He soon came to his senses but he was scrambled for a second or two.

    Which one?

    " i think it grazed "?
    " it clearly missed "?

    You are making this far to easy.
    Lol.

    It grazed his neck/shoulder and clearly missed his head. I've been pretty clear on my position.
