… if the ref was on the other side and thought it was a body shot… Counts him out… Guy is holding his kidney in agony…
Can anything be done? How is a FOUL allowed to score a knockout?
What is a kidney punch anyway?
I always considered a kidney punch to the back, like when Louis landed against Max Schmeling when he turned around and showed his back to Joe.
Most likely like any foul. They will review it and decide if they change it to a no contest.
Foreman knock out of Mijangas was a BLATANT KIDNEY PUNCH, yet it was scored a ko
I see a lot of fights get stopped on punches behind the head, the lower the level the more you see it. But I don’t see kidney punches often. Rightfully it should ruled a NC, but rightfully doesn’t happen often in the sport. Again, it’s worse on the lower levels
Ron is the man. Always liked him. #Swanson
Agreed. Amateur RABBIT PUNCHES are all the rage.
Gotta admit, Ruiz RABBIT PUNCHED Joshua [MENTION=12604]Master[/MENTION] to be honest he rabbit punched him
Ruiz is a lucky SOB who should never have won the title. He was a disgrace as a champion and should retire.
Master, Ruiz rabbit punched Joshua on 2 of the 4 knockdowns. I feel his handspeed is excellent for a big rotund blob.
Hand Speed aint nothing that should have caused AJ any problems even with the rabbit punching.
So you’re saying AJs KO was due to pre-existing concussion?
Something was not right with AJ that night and he still won some rounds. A fully fit AJ showed that it was no contest.

Dude
Sounds like a Freddie Norwood special. I guess I’d rather take a kidney shot than a shot to the back of the head. Norris had a few of those :-X. Just seemed like he couldn’t resist for some crazy reason.
Hey Spicoli have you ever seen the George Foreman versus m i j a n g a s fight ? you know how George Foreman used to throw that looping right hand to the hip and then it would just creep around a little farther right into the kidney? Well this was the most egregious kidney punch I’ve ever seen. If anybody on this thread wants to watch a kidney punch if there ever was a kidney punch that knockout is something which kind of makes Foreman look bad if you ask me

In fairness it’s like trying to stop a freight train after it left the station slooooow but too heavy ;D. Think he nailed Lakusta with them too after he was nearly wobbled by the Canadian.
Found a vid, and whooo lands the first rabbit punch at 1:24 ;D. Man he had some duds when he first came back. Some of these were lesser than his Toronto 5 where at least he did them all in one night.

Man look at that around 1:20 ish. George caught him with the two-piece..right upper cut right below the belt in the Lil’ Mijangos and then a right to the kidney as he tried to clinch :-X
Spicoli, great find. I really appreciate that. Let me go and watch it now. This is going to be great let’s see how bad it is and let’s see how good my memory is.
