Some people are obviously confused here. Fisher is the guy in white with a visor punching the guy in black. Downie landed a few glancing blows. They didn't have a square off , so how is Fisher supposed to get the visor off? Some people are also confused because they voted for Downie.

Fisher should have took his helmet off. But Fisher still gets the win here.

Fischer with the edge for landing more in this one. Decent scrap.

We've seen Downie in at least half a dozen fights with his visor on. It's not like he developed some code of honor for this fight. The only reason his helmet is off is because Fisher pulls it off early in the fight.

I love seeing these Philthadelphia pukes get pounded

I think Fisher gets the win here, but it's a lot closer than a lot of you are making it out to be

brennank You have to get off the crack bud, it's killing you. For you to give Downie the win proves you are a homer. Can't win every fight. Fisher at the end of his shift, still beats Downie. To bad Gratts wasn't around to wipe the ice with your boy Cote. Flyers equal *******!! Nice punch on the ice Downie!

Draw... maybe slight slight win for Fisher.

Fisher didn't land a single clean punch you Senator homers.

Fisher is a *****, take off your visor

Give Downey the win because Fisher is afraid to fight fair

I'm not a Flyer hater, but the visor question is a non-starter. They both had visors, Downie didn't take his off, so why would Fisher? The announcers started by saying how Downie was really throwing 'em. What is Fisher to do, ask for a time out? Of course, if he does that, he could get a thumb in the eye, like Jason Blake did. Live by the sword (or face shield) die by the sword.

Downie lands more punches, and cleaner...but take your visor off, wuss. A win, but no points awarded by this judge...

who cares about the visor. downie wanted to go, so they went. there you have it. fisher would own downie in a street fight any day of the week - no visors allowed.

Well go ahead and call Fisher a pu**y because he didn't take off his visor but if you watch it, Downie came after him. The real pus*y is Downie , maybe he should just stick to dirty cheap shots.

Fisher with the edge. Even with the Visor.

Downie gets a taste of his own medicine. Fisher owned him. Sure helps when your lid stays glued to your head but as far as I'm concerned, Downie instgated with a shield on so fock him, he got his come uppance from a non-fighter.

Way to much hate on this. The reviews are pretty funny but so homerish. Grow up people. Downie lost. Big deal.

downie gets pounded by a player throwing them behind a mask. how poetic. and how bout the flyer announcers commenting on fischer's visor in their orange colored glasses while downie getting hit. too hillarious. watch the clip, downie was the aggressor fischer just smartly chose to yank off visorboy's helmet at the start of the fight knowing downie's MO. couple of cliches here. you reap what you sow. what comes around goes around.

Okay all you Philly fans, keep crying cause Downie LOST!!
He wanted it, so he got it, plain and simple.
Why is it Philly fans have to whine so much, almost like the Boogie fans, sheesh.
