    I hope Howard Foster not the ref for the AJ fight.

    Coffie wasn't even hurt. He was just riding out the assault whilst twisting away from Fabio's shots and catching and blocking many of them to take the sting out of them. I'm a fan of Fabio but that was turing out to me a struggle for him and Foster was looking for a reason to stop it.

    Time to log off. Coffie blocked a lot of punches and wasnt visibly hurt.

    Fair play to Fabergé, he agrees it was a premature stoppage.

    Understood. I felt the same way about Chavez Jr. Very satisfying when Fonfara whooped his ass.

    Don't hold your breath, he will be back as soon they need a quick stoppage to pad some overhyped bums record

    That easily would have gone another 2 rounds even if you believe wardley was massively on top and was getting the KO.

    Why wouldn't Coffie land a right on Howard Foster?

    It's like people still don't understand boxing. Coffee was getting hit hard and most of the punches that were thrown were hitting him, when a fighter doesn't hit back for a while without throwing punches the referee will stop it. It's Coffee's fault for acting like a punching bag without arms.

    Only boxing has this type of farcical crap continuing time after time.

    The refs are such a shady bunch.

    That stoppage won't convince anyone. Wardley has a lot of flaws for me, looks a wild punching novice at times and is too much in love with his power. That approach won't get him stoppages with or without a clown like Foster down the line.
