It was low, but not to the nuttsack, that being said Jab tried to pull a Hopkins and it backfired on him. I wish the fight would have continued, but the better fighter won, and I guess that's what is most important.
i honestly cant say i remember where the ref pointed as low but to be honest it was not low enough to hit his balls and was more to the side an dwould have hit his hip where his trunks were was high enough it hit stomach judah wanted a way out his face was getting messed up and he was getting tagged and slowing down he thought the ref was giving him time to rest but refs dont do that by counting to ten and he knew the ref was counting
It was a low bow according to the refs pre fight instructions yes. But it wasn't 'below the belt'. In a way it's the refs fault there is controversy - Judah had his trunks pulled up high and a lot of refs, say 'you're trunks are high so anything on the belt line is legal'. He didn't so people can say 'oh it was a low blow'. For god sakes look at the first Ali Frazier fight. Frazier pounded Ali's belt and it was legal because of how high Ali's trunks were. After the fight Ali's lower abs and upper hips were bruised to **** - if those Frazier hooks had of hit his balls he would be incapable of procreation afterwards and he clearly wasn't. It's just a rubbish excuse for losing from Judah. If that punch hit Judah in the balls, his balls are in his lower abs. The punch hit him just on or just below the belly button, at least 4 or 5 inches from his nuts. He was clearly looking for an excuse as he was being pounded and would have been stopped anyway - he was in bad shape for round 5.
Anyone with good eyes and ears can note that the shot was low. It was not a knockout, however, hopefully Zab puts on a few stellar performances and makes it back. I don't see a rematch
Judah took worse hits from Cotto. He could have gotten up from that. And this is coming from a Judah fan.
TS saying that technically it was a low blow. The fact that Judah bitched out doesn't change that. Are you thick mate?
It was a low blow. However, the fact is Judah quit; so it's irrelevant whether the blow was legal or not. Zab was done.
The fact is it was ruled a knock down. Vic clearly counted and Zab had the opportunity to get up but elected to stay down. As soon as the count was over, he jumped up. He clearly took the out. If it wasnt that punch, Zab would have found a way out in the next round or so some other way. Hes a notorious underachiever. The punch he landed on Floyd to get out of that fight was a real low blow, this was a legal punch on the beltline. Zab knows the difference more than anyone.
I find it funny when people say that it's "irrelevant". The Yankees are leading 15-0 coming in the 10th. They can use nuclear bat since it's irrelevant.
