    They could not jeopardize a possible $100,000,000 fight between garcia and romero, that's what it's about. How many times has a non popular boxer get screwed over by a more popular fighter? Boxing continues to be a joke in 2023.

    Stop attributing clear corruption as incompetence. These refs are doing exactly what they've been paid to do under the table. That was as corrupt as it gets.

    who the **** are the 7% of people who voted that it should have been stopped? I didn't think Romero had fanboys.

    Always nice to hear boxers agreeing a fight was stopped prematurely, in their own way. I reckon he deserves some credit for that.

    I don't see him holding onto that title for long at all. Won't be surprised if he's passed off to Garcia like Barroso was to him. Dude doesn't last three rounds against anyone in the top 10 of 140.

    That fight is not worth $100 million. What the **** are you talking about?
