andre has it 2-2.....rather generous to valdez i think

andre has it 2-2.....rather generous to valdez i think

He corrected it to 3-1

[oogiebe]

Someone's getting the timing down here.

[squiggy]

Yeah, even one round to Valdez is fairly generous

[margaret thatcher]

shak sitting down on some shots in the 5th.....wins the round pretty big.

although if valdez has any shot of a homerun counter left hook, he just may need shak to start getting more aggressive

[gregregegg]

shak round. Been warned about 10 times for pawing his jab and holding it out there... Id like to see an official warning, and a point if he keeps doing it.

I hate when someone does something to there advantage, but just gets warned and warned and warned and never has to adjust. Be interesting to see if shak could addapt and fight without pawing.

r5 shak boxing lovely when valdez gets shak in a cr throwing wildly shak looks great

[mcrow24]

I don't think Valdez was hurt by that punch but it was a a knock down just the same.

[margaret thatcher]

lol that was a funny knockdown

[margaret thatcher]

valdez';s chances are better if shak is aggressive like this

[margaret thatcher]

no i dont think it shouldve been a knockdown, the right hand landed on gloves

[brilo33]

rd6 shak boxing great wants to keep his hands up tho got caught couple of times. it was ko down 10 8

[brilo33]

no i dont think it shouldve been a knockdown, the right hand landed on gloves

[margaret thatcher]

and then stevenson threw a right hand that landed on his gloves that forced him down. nothing landed

[mcrow24]

no i dont think it shouldve been a knockdown, the right hand landed on gloves

A landed punch that causes the fighter to go down is a knockdown. Whether he hit the gloves or not doesn't matter.

a punch that hit the gloves isnt a connect

[skanksta]

Valdez need 3KDs and all the remaining rounds to win by decision imo.

Masterclass from Shak.

[oogiebe]

That being called KD or not won't matter in the result of this fight. It's all Shak.

havent seen the replay ill take ur word for it then

[margaret thatcher]

cue valdez sweeping the last 5 and scoring some kds to make it the difference

[brilo33]

think it will go points looks to be fuseing out

[jezzamundo]

no i dont think it shouldve been a knockdown, the right hand landed on gloves

A landed punch that causes the fighter to go down is a knockdown. Whether he hit the gloves or not doesn't matter.

I assumed that was the rule too - beating someone to the canvas with blocked shots should count.

no i dont think it shouldve been a knockdown, the right hand landed on gloves

a punch that hit the gloves isnt a connect

It is if it also hits the head.

so, let's say dudes throw punches at the same time, one guy clips the others guys extended forearmn with a shot and the guy briefly touches down off balance - should those be ruled as kds then?
