Vitali Klitschko vs. Corrie Sanders Round 1 - Was Vitali Knocked Down?

No

 

Text book definition of a moot point.

 

To me, yes, it looked like a knockdown. Sanders hit him hard, there was a moment delay, then Vitali went down. But from the angle shown, it's hard to say for sure. It doesn't really matter, though: Sanders wasn't equipped to keep it up and Vitali beat him up from there.

 

Cool how you got the link from just the right point. Thanks. I think it was a shove. Not a foul of course. Just by accident. Sanders was a very hard puncher if he caught you flush.

 

it looked like one at first but the replay showed it was a slip.

And who cares, Vitali tapped that ass.

 

It was definitely and undeniably a knockdown. Sanders' left to the upper right of Vitalii's skull who was already in panic, flailing, running and doing his own Wlad impression - dropped him.

A few less cases of beer and a few less boxes of donuts in "training" and Sanders' could have ended this one the same as he did with Wlad.

 

Ok so next time a fighter lands a good shot they should just push you really hard or hold you and drag you to the canvas to get a knock down?

Just making sure i understand your logic here.
Because if this will be the rule i think we will be seeing a lot more knockdowns in fights from now on.

Also clear as day that that was a push.

 

Ref had it right no knock down :deal
