    Yuri Foreman clearly took a dive.



    that weak a** uppercut wouldn't knock Paulie Malignaggi out. I wonder how much extra Foreman was paid for this.. and a horrible acting job to boot.

    yeah looked like a dive to me, he could have got up.

      At first I thought it was a dive, than they showed the other view of the uppercut. Was a legit shot.

        I saw it from another angle and Lara got full leverage on that uppercut. It was timed perfectly and nailed him right on the chin.

        If Foreman had a better chin he could've continued, but his legs were gone.

          The GIF is doodoo. I split it into frames and there doesn't even seem to be one at the moment the uppercut lands.

          These are back to back frames in your GIF





          The GIF either skips the actual moment of the connect, or Lara didn't land that punch (I didn't see the fight live).

            Don't think so. His Knees are shot.

              I slow-mo'd the highlight video this GIF originated from and the punch does connect, quite well actually. Lara got good leverage on that punch, twisted his body to land it. The whole moment of him throwing the punch till the moment it connects was a fraction of a second.

              My vote is no dive.

                I remember Foreman seriously injured his knee during a fight a couple of years ago. I think it was against Cotto. Might have had an ACL tear. A mobile fighter is never the same after that injury no matter what.

                  His leg's were gone before the fight even started
