How can you call a low blow a knockdown? That was not a knockdown. You got caught off guard by a cheap shot. As long as it wasn't a head shot or a body shot. Your good. No matter what they say. It wasn't a knockdown.
Well, the rules are: If you are fouled you have 5 minutes to recover in those 5 five minutes you can walk around get down stretch so yeah, I don't think it's a knockdown :P
Even Vitali Klitschko was allegedly knocked down in sparring, it is not that a big deal.
So me and this other boy were sparring at the boxing gym that we go to, he's a bit inexperienced and he threw what was meant to be a body shot but ended up catching me in the balls, a definite low blow, I spent about ten seconds walking around the ring and then I sort of squatted down for no real reason, I think because there were people watching I wanted to show off a bit, I got back up after about six or seven seconds. The punch hurt but it didn't cause me great, considerable pain, I didn't drop to the canvas in agony or anything like that, we ended up doing another two rounds.
I know myself that it wasn't a knockdown because I went down onto my knees by my own accord, not by his punch and the only reason I went down was because there three people watching and I was just looking for attention really.
I just need some extra confirmation...
