    I noticed that last night re watching some high lights, looked like a textbook southpaw vs orthodox foot tangling

    It looked like he got clipped behind the ear, it was a balance shot so he wasn’t hurt but he did touch the floor with his gloves from a shot and since David didn’t complain either, I think it was legit.

    I thought he knocked him off balance before touching the canvas. Legitimate for me but counted for very little in the grand scheme on things.
