Their first fight in which Tuas was credited with a Ko was controversial. The punch that landed after the bell was significant and played a role in ending the fight. Should this bout have been declared a no contest? The punch was indeed after the bell? How did the state boxing comission not rule on this? Please post............

It's kinda of ironic that both of their fights have one of these moments.

Rahman also became the only man to ever knock down David Tua in their rematch...about 1 or 2 seconds after the bell.

Anyway, Rahman avenged this with dropping Tua after the final bell of the rematch.

In both cases I don't feel like it was a flagrant foul. It was just in the heat of battle, and the shot got fired a beat too late. Sh*t happens.

I remember Rahman's interview after the Tua rematch pretty well actually even though it was a rather dull fight.

rahman shoulda got 5 minutes recoverry time and if he wasnt able to continue it should've gone to the cards, huge shot that obviously f@cked him up in a fight he'd been winning handily

Monte Barrett knocked him down too

Tua is a god to men, he's allowed to punch any time he damn well wants.

Rahman's was the only one at the time it happened. The Barrett fight was quite a while later, but yes you are correct.
