Fighters You Think Who Took A Dive

[CFH]

Augustus vs. Vedder

I agree with that one, maybe Liston - Ali, but FNF ran a piece about it that sought to prove it was more a case of inept reffing than a dive.

I see a program on Liston vs Ali and they had this program to show you exactly where Ali's punch landed and it was nothing more than a grazing blow on the cheek.

Yeah, I know what you mean, but Liston could've gone down due to his balance, I haven't seen it in a while so I don't exactly remember. Didn't Liston get up ready to fight though - until the ref (Joe Walcott wasn't it?) stopped it after someone ringside (the owner of Ring Mag or something?) told him Liston didn't beat the count?

Yes sir that is exactly what happened. Walcott couldn't get Ali to a corner and lost control over the fight and by the time the Ring editor hollered that he had been down more than 10 seconds, Liston had gotten up and was ready to fight (at least he acted like it). Have a CC

CC back, I thought I was remembering that correctly. What a gong show.
And as much as I dislike ODH, he doesn't strike as the type of guy to take a dive... Its not like he needed the money.
