His trainer sent him in there to defend only and not get hit, he threw nothing and his corner told him after 2 rounds they werent going to let him get hit, his injury was a massive factor in their thinking coming in, he didnt look confident coming into the ring.

This is the reason the fight was made, an easy fight in reality after Lamons injury and loss and layoff. Wlad bxed very well. Know he can fight a real opponent, he is ready now. If he beats the winner of chagaev, ibragamov he will have avenged the loss to Brewster because the linage of victory from that fight will belong to the winner of that fight.
This was Brewters retirement fund, just as the second Tyson fight was forBruno when he entered that with a detatched retina from his previous fight and as a result had no confidence or will to be there once he got hit. |

Brewster may very well be damaged goods, but let's face it, Wlad had to take this fight.
If he didn't, there would be tons of people screaming that he's ducking Brewster. In fact, haven't some people been saying that in recent years? So, it does no good to whine about Brewster being shot. |

I think McGirt definitely had in mind to keep Brewster as safe as he could.
I don't think he ever had confidence that Brewster could win this fight...evidenced by the constant threat to stop it even though Brewster was getting peppered with only jabs. I hope Lamon can still continue fighting, he would totally kick Maskaev's, Ibragimov's and Chagaev's asses. |
