Buddy McGirt, would have a stop watch with him while watching his guys spar if his guy did something wrong, he would stop the round and start the round over, sometimes having 20 minute rds, he did this with Lamon Brewster and Arturo Gatti.

For the second Gatti - Ward fight, he wanted Gatti to box and not get into trading punches.
When Gatti reverted to his old style of brawling, McGirt would stop the round and start the round all over again.
