    We've been through all this before. It is not the ref's job to know how many seconds are on a clock. Frustrating, but not necessarily a fix.

    Would be very honourable of the ref to step in if an average Joe like myself is being hit but these guys are earning tens of millions per fight and their full time job is being hit, there have been many early stoppages in HW boxing recently which were jokes - Wardley vs Parker, Kabayel vs Knyvba and now this

    Had the ref waved it there , there would have been more uproar. Just a stupid post on your part.

    It would have been worse if the judges had actually scored the fight as it should have been… Usyk jumped clear with the KD.. 2 cards were 95-95

    You misunderstood - The ref gave Rico time instead of letting Usyk finish him there and then. Not wave it off.

    Just a stupid misunderstanding on your part.

    There is no misunderstanding with your idiotic “he was out on his feet”

    the knockdown would have left Rico needing a KO in the last which wouldn’t have happened… let’s be real though Usyk should have been 8-2 down going into the 11th

    Usyk just got beaten clearly by kickboxer... the stoppage was bs. Usyk is a joke and I will never EVER, look at this clown the same again. Just like fury.

    I dont know how slow you are. This is what you wrote

    If he was he wouldn't have given Rico time to get his mouthguard when he was clearly out on his feet

    Is English your 2nd language? You , the only person to claim, he was out on his feet. Do you not understand what you wrote? Clearly you have mental capacity problem if you don’t understand what you wrote.
