    Pause it at 131, shortly before the knockout/down.


    I went to Youtube instand of posting a pic of the fight this time.

    Well I was watching the fight and I always assume base on the commantary of the fight, Carpentier trips on Siki's feet during the knockout blows Siki lands. But today on my tv when I was rewatching the fight today, for the first time in nearly 4 years of having the footage, I notice it was not a trip. Siki which Carpentier charges in, lifts his left leg up and knees Carpentier in the leg while holding punching.

    It seems very clear Siki kick Carpentier on purpose, and the ref perhaps was in the right to DQ Siki??

    That looks like a kick to me.

    Definitely a red card in any case :D

    Siki is such an ugly and uncoordinated fighter, it's hard to tell. :lol:

    Either way, I don't think the ref was right to try to DQ him.

    Lets right this wrong, lets go back with the DQ win for Carpentier, and reclaim him lightheavyweight champion of the world.

    We just need to have a shovel now, Carp's due to defend the title any month now lol.
