Tillis didn't dive but clearly his heart was not in the game at this point, and in boxing that can be a major difference between being an opponent and being a contender.
and your opponent is a heavy hitter...why not stay down the first time??
its only logical

No chance. For one Tillis shipped some very heavy punishment. And secondly the facts are, in a richly talent laden era Tillis started off well than after losing a title shot became perhaps the ultimate trial horse/ capable journeyman of the era, fighting contender after contender and sometimes shipping out on his feet when the punishment got too hard, so that he could fight another day. Look at the Bruno fight. He turns and waves his hands. But it wasnt a tank jobBrutu wrote:I remember an interview on a boxing show where Tommy Morrison was asked about the claim in James"Quick"Tillis autobiography

Tillis was in reality as tough as he was talented. He could really box when the mood took him in his early days and he gave Tyson a tough test in 86

If he was allergic to whatever diet he was to, you may have seen a champion of the WBA for a year, or two arguably, as long as he didn't fight Page, or Dokes.
