klitschko vs solis round by round and scores (Spoilers)


Recommended Posts

Because he never stood unaided from the knockdown and was facing away from the ref, who counted 10 and paused breifly before waving it off. If you're held up by the ropes when going dowhn it's still a knockdown, so presumably you have to stand unsupported for the count to stop.

Hmm looks like he did for several seconds before the referee waved it off. The count has to get to 8 for the "mandatory 8 count" whether your up or down"...facing away from the ref would bare no difference on the ruling, much like standing up and walking all over the place. IMO it seemed like it was an "injury" and not a "knock out"

If you are facing away from the ref, therefore by extension away from the opponent, you are in no fit position to defend yourself ( fight ) hence the stoppage.

 

 

Where this nonsensical idea that Haye will be bouyed by the ease with which Solis caught Vitali comes into the equation is beyond me. It is Vladimir that has the shitty chin, not Vitali. The question is what happens when Vitali hits Haye on the button?
