    That's the worst stoppage I've ever seen in a fight.
     
  2. Yeah but by that logic mate the twat should've just let the bell ring & waved it off before Enzo got twatted.

    You diet, put yourself through the mill in training, you deserve the right to get knocked out.

    Who cares if it was the worst stoppage you'll see, give it another round maximum and Enzo would have been knocked out, literally any half decent punch he takes wobbles him badly.

    I think this is a shocking fight tbh, complete mismatch and Mckenzie is as average as they come.

    It's a keep busy fight for Enzo before the showdown with Clev after Hopkins turns down the latest of F*ank's tremendous offers.

    Its weird! Before the Haye fight! Enzo Mac was immense, and their was even talk on him chasing Haye up at Heavyweight!

    It makes you wonder..? What did those Hayemakers do to him..?

    Its like when Manny Steward stated...

    "There are some punches/knock-outs that fighters never fully recover from, even if they fight on..? there punch resistance is permanently damaged"

    He was referencing to Roy Jones.

    Enzo was immense? :rofl
     
  7. I know. Carved out some decent wins but was greatly picked to get blasted out by Haye sharpish.

    It was a 50/50 fight Haye vs Enzo!

    This was the feeling at the time inside boxing.

    Enzo Mac was a good exciting fighter!

    No it wasn't, anyone with sense could see that it was an execution waiting to happen.

    Mckenzie in 1-6 is easy money
    Think last time i did in 1-3 got a bit lucky but Enzo wasn't surviving the next round

    Yep a lot of people were picking Enzo. Remember listening to Steve Collins heavily tipping him. It was built up as the 'battle of glass chin' but obvioulsy Enzo has gone on to prove his chin is a far worse achilles' heel than Haye's ever was.

    I shouldn't be laughing at that stoppage as much as I am:lol:

    My first time seeing it, gotta feel for Enzo, if he's putting in the work in training camp he deserves the chance to go out on his shield. IJL is a joke!

    I had sympathy at the time or IJL. He clearly was on red alert to keep Enzo safe considering the brain shaking KOs he's suffered over the years. It doesn't make it right, but he just panicked when he was on the ropes - he's human, lets forgive him. I didnt watch the fight live as I was almost to scared to knowing Ovils power I feared for Enzos safety. Yes, as many have said ENzo did the work, passed the tests and was entitled to go out on his shield bt we all know he shouldn't be fighting and is an accident waiting to happen. I understand he made good money against Haye and big truck in particular - surely he can do something else other then get sparked and end up punch drunk....

    People need to calm down regarding enzo's health, making out he's some kind of accident waiting to happen. Many fighters suffer numerous ko's through a career - that's boxing. How many times do legions of journeymen get sparked only to fight again as soon as possible?? Its their job.

    Many other sports have concussions to athletes far in excess of those Enzo has suffered, how many times has Alistair Overeem been chinned? Or Wanderlei silva? Still 2 of the best mma guys around, rugby players often play on after getting ko'd. Is it good or healthy that all this happens?? Hell to the no but that's why we love it - its a dangerous sport with seriously tough and brave guys taking part. Amost all fighters will show effects from a career in pro boxing - the same as Ice hockey, rugby and other tough sports. Even top level footballers can spend much of they're careers on pain killers just to get to get to the next game, and that's a "bummers" sport.

    Enzo has always taken a break after any ko loss, let the guy earn his money and do his job.
