Went back and rewatched the sequence because of this thread and when Herb steps in and Hill recognizes that and stops fighting Alex does jump closer and then they restart the action from there.
If the KO landed a half second after the pause, I'd say sure, maybe it had some impact. But the low blow happened, Alex hopped forward, Jamahal prompted him with a thumbs up, Alex acknowledged it, Herb retreated, then the fight continued for a couple of seconds before the KO.
Maybe Jamahal's feet were out of position. But that's his fault, and no one else's.
Hill caused the infraction thus Its Poatens choice to accept the refs recoup /reset offer. He chose to not loose focus and ko Hill as a result.
Protect yourself at all times.
Bingo.A full reset would have been unfair to Alex, he was pressing.
This!Hill literally tried to counter Alex's feint with a punch lol, him saying he wasn't ready to keep fighting(for a foul that he committed himself) is just cope.
How would that affect hill at all. The ref didn’t even intervene and literally just popped in for a second. Hill still had his focus on Alex and the KO came way after that. Hill was the one who hit Alex in the nutsI don't think it's a huge deal, but I don't like it that the ref acted like he was going to give them an intermission and let the fighter control the fight and say no. It's kind of like when the ref acts like he's going to stop the fight and doesn't.
He didn’t lose focus the KO happened way after and hill even was throwing a shot to counter Alex. The ref didn’t even intervene the action was still going, hill told herb he’s fine and they continued fightingWhat a goofy ass thing to say.
Poatan didnt lose focus. YOU did.
That is YOUR fault.
Yup and those same ones wouldn’t be making excuses for Alex, they would say it was fairImagine if the left he threw KO Alex instead, he wouldnt be crying then.
He would’ve got knocked out anyway, he literally tried to throw a counter as he was knocked out and didn’t even try to create distanceIt's his fault but lets not pretend like that skip forward that closed the distance by a foot doesn't make a drastic difference. What happens if there's no groin kick what so ever and Alex skips closer like that? Well the natural thing for Hill to do would be to skip back with him
The fight never stopped and hill tried to throw a counter shotWent back and rewatched the sequence because of this thread and when Herb steps in and Hill recognizes that and stops fighting Alex does jump closer and then they restart the action from there.
