    REwatch the zab knock out.
    He recovered as soon as he hit the canvas again.
    Berbick was OUT.
    Morrison was OUT

    Zab had full composure and had every right to complain

    Well having watched it again I still think it was a good stoppage by the reff.

    Zabs legs were gone!

    Dunno bro, I just disagree.
    The 10 count is the time needed to get his composure back. As you can see, he hits the canvas again and gets back up after the fight is flagged and is perfectly fine. That would have been a 6 count at the very most - which means he would have beaten any count that the ref made easily.. IF the ref made a count.

    A fighter shouldn't be penalized for trying to stand again too soon like Zab was. Zab could have continued the fight after beating a count perfectly. My oppinion though

    I thought that when he got back up then went down again the fight is over, that there was a rule that covered this possibility. It wasn't any kind of a judgement call by the ref, he just followed the rules. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    I'm not sure bro.. if that's the case then i guess it's no question on whether or
    not he could continue....great stoppage.
