    Leonard-Hearns 1 maybe. He had a good lead on the cards at the time.

    Good Example...

    If Hearns Just Takes a Knee, CLEARS his Head & Gets Back to Jabbing/Moving, there's a Good Probability of him Not Only Making It OUT of Round 14, but WINNING the Fight...

    Herol Graham vs Charles Brewer.

    Graham just could not get off the ropes and took too many shots in a fight he was probably winning and probably going to win.

    Watch from around 39.00 on. Graham has totally befuddled and is starting to hurt Brewer until Brewer traps him on the ropes and goes for broke. Graham could have taken a knee, lost the round 9-8 and still gone on to win.

    Instead, he gets trapped, takes too many and is not firing back and its stopped.

    I question that one.

    Joppy fighting with his down by his waist was not gonna let him last 12 with Trinidad.

    BOSS thinks Roid should have taken a knee as soon as his daddy asked him about rehearsed excuses.

    Judah vs Zoo:
    instead of trying t invent a new dance he should have take a knee, clear his head and hold Zoo until the ref gives him a warning for holding (more time to recoup his legs).
