Well first off, we don't have to. We're not "world class" prizefighters. There's no expectation for any of us to be able to take a punch. If I go to a restaurant and the food sucks, can I not complain if I don't have a degree in the culinary arts?

Comparing the punch David Price took to this one is just insane. Price got hit with a CLEAN, hard left to the temple with enough concussive force to slam his head back into his own shoulder.

This punch was a slapping left - a throwaway punch thrown to hide the right straight that didn't land.

If it wasn't a dive, Malik should be banned from boxing because obviously he doesn't have the cranial integrity to withstand punches and he's unfit to fight.

If sauteing an onion might kill you, then your analogy would be more accurate

Whose to say Wilder doesn't just hit a lot harder than Tony Thompson? The shot that landed on Price didn't appear all that hard either and it was a similar sort of cuffing shot that wrapped around the ear, I don't see whats remotely insane about comparing them. The only real difference is that Thompson was much more clearly out of it afterwards, it's Scotts reaction and the eye contact that made this one look suspect imo. Still, we don't know what he felt in there.
