"Typhoon" Ishida knocks out Kirkland

[Mars_ax]

I dunno, it's hard for a ref to let it go after you're being knocked down 3 times with ease. That 3rd one in particular he looked to be dropped pretty hard. I know Marquez was allowed to come back..I guess it depends on the ref..But something must be up if you're going down that easy. Caught cold?

"Caught Cold" sounds about as good as any other explanation, but these weren't "flash KD's" like Kirkland was saying in the post fight interview with Max, each one was legit.

Yeah he got his ass boo'd for pretending they were flash knockdowns
But I think Khan's knockout by Breidis Prescott was also him being caught cold..he probably would have got KTFO if those shots landed later but having taken a few more glancing blows or weaker shots, he may have warmed up to the task...

Nah probably not, his chin plain sucked at 140 lol

I like how Khan tried to pretend that surviving his fight Maidana showed he had a solid chin, you could have fooled me Amir..

In fairness to Khan, Prescott had some serious power @ Lightweight, as does Maidana at Jr. Welter. (just ask Ortiz)

Being KO'd by Ishida is about like getting KTFO by "Paulie" Malignaggi.

As someone else said in a different post, isn't it strange that he could take good shots from Julio who has a pretty big punch and Ishida sparks him?

Would your opinion of the outcome of this fight differ if Kirkland hadn't been knocked out by Ishida? In other words, when this fight was discussed a few years ago, who did you think would win?
