Not "Down" against Johansson[edit]

The article claims, that Machen was hit while "down" against Ingemar Johansson. It insinuates, that the swedes win was unfair, and that he should have been disqualified. That is wrong. Machen was not down. He holds on to the ropes, but that was legal at the time. I will erase that part, if noone protests. Fightdane (talk) 14:31, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
