    I've never seen a guy walk straight back to his corner, directly responding to the bell, and be out of it. if they are out of it, they wont respond so swiftly.

    ali was hurt, but not out of it at all.

    and just rmemeber who you are talking about, the guy with arguably toughest chin in HW history. no ref is going to stop ali just cos hes got knocked down once, not unless they are bribed to.

    Yeah it looked like such a Sunday stroll for him that Dundee only came out to congratulate him on how well he took that shot.

    You are avoiding the point. Modern era Ali is not allowed to walk back to his corner and plop down on the stool. He has to show the ref that he is able to continue. Just because you can stagger does not mean a ref will let you continue to fight. No way a modern ref let's that fight continue, much less Dundee helping him to the corner, much less the extra time for the glove, much less the banned smelling salts. It's a TKO and you ****ing know it. Your ego just won't let you admit to yourself that you were wrong.

    How does Cooper TKO Ali in 2003? It was the end of the round and Ali was up at the count of three. No ref stops that fight...ever.

    Really? How many times have you seen a fighter dropped at the end of a round, get up at three, go to his corner and then have the ref step in and stand him up to see if hes ok? Utter ridiculousness!!

    You are lying to yourself. No way is Ali ready to fight. It took help to get him to his stool, an extra 40 seconds, banned smelling salts.

    This fight is a TKO and you know it.

    Are you blind. You aren't allowed to walk back to your corner. You have to first check with the ref.

    No, i dont know it. How many fights (I'd appreciate specifics) have you seen a fighter hurt or dropped at the end of a round, get up at 3, go to his corner and sit only to have the ref come to the corner and make him get up to check him and than stop the fight? You make it sound as if this happens often so you should have plenty of examples. On the flip side, ive seen the ref go to corners between rounds and tell a fighter if he doesnt start protecting himself he will stop the fight. I'll give you an example....Corrales-Castillo. Have you seen that fight? According to you it should have been stopped. Here's another...Gatti-Ward. Gatti was hurt from a viscious body punch and getting battered. Where was the ref? Now give me some examples of the ref making someone get up between rounds and stopping.

    God you are a dumbass.

    When the **** did I say the ref would go to the corner and stand him up. I never said that I never implied that you are just dumb. A ref today wouldn't let Ali stagger back to his corner with Dundee help amd then check him. Actually he would DQ him the moment Dundee helped him but thst is beside the point. The ref would check Ali right there as soon as he got up. That is what they are required to do now. He would most likely stop the fight there.

    If he didn't the fight most definitely would have been stopped between rounds as without the smelling salts and delay with the glove there is no way Ali makes the bell, either the ref or doc stops it then.

    See post #186. And you still havent given me any examples nor commented on the examples i gave and why those fights werent stopped. On top of that you're talking about an Ali who wasnt even prime yet. And you're calling other people dumb? :rofl

    Sure, just like he whooped Byrd with Chris traveling to Germany on a weeks notice. Vits has nothing for Ali except a big bullseye on his face. If he quit against Byrd he probably wouldnt even sign a fight against the greatest.

    So you again have no answers? What did Byrd do better than Ali? And if Vits could only land 8 more punches against him and made to miss all night long how would he beat Ali who as already pointed out was bigger, stronger, faster, better chin, hit harder and was more elusive?
