    2 things...

    #1. You saw the fight didn't you? Obviously that isn't the way that it went down. The whole damn thing was on live television and we could see what happened. I don't care who wrote that nonsense.

    #2. Even if the doctor did see blood behind the eye... that can't be automatically contributed to the headbutt. Any punch could have caused that same damage behind his eye.

    Yes.

    The way I saw it.

    Nate said he couldn't see and advised his corner to stop it.

    The doctor came in, checked his cut and said he was okay. Nate said he could not see and the Doctor stopped it.

    What I was saying is nate can argue that head butt was the reason of the cut and should have been given time to recover because he got cut.

    But because the fight was let go on, Nate couldn't recover, who looked like had a taken serious shot after getting hit with the head butt. Thus the shots he took after, caused the damage but Campbell wasn't at 100% because of the butt. See what I am saying?


    Either way though. I believe the head butt caused the damage and I believe Nate couldn't see.

    If the head butt was not the reason, then it should be a TKO sadly but Nate made the right choice in stopping.

    What do you mean "lets go"? What in the rules books was the ref supposed to do after that accidental butt Eze?

    And no one said it should happen, but butts DO happen. So what's your point? That butts should not happen? Guess what dude...everyone in the world of boxing (accept Holyfield :lol:) agrees with that.

    We all know this eze. And that's not even what I am disputing. There has been WAAY worse cuts in fight allowed to go. Campbell's cut was no where close to being bad. And his corner had a minute to contain the cut if necessary.

    And what about Campbell's eye showiing NO SIGN or foreign object. Ever get dust in yoyur eye? Saw dust? Smoke? All irritates your eye very easily. Campbell showed no sign of irritation, other them he got the TKO loss rather thtn eht ND he was looking for.

    In what fight can you remember a fighter allowed to recover from an accidental HB mid fight? Especially when a punch DID follow the HB.

    I can't recall any fighter getting time to recover from an accidental clash of heads. I have seen the cut get checked if it is a really nasty one. His wasn't all that bad.

    Also, I don't see how time to recover would have helped... since he was still saying that he was seeing spots during the post fight interview.

    Have you always deliberately acted this ****ing dumb to back up your arguements? The doctor himself backed up Campbells claims of the injury.

    Still trying to claim it wasn't the trauma of the headbutt which caused the eye bleeding once again proves beyond reasonable doubt you're full of nothing but horse****.

    You're acusing someone else of rewriting history? Speechless.

    I dont know why the would not stop it, they get breaks from accidental low blows but a head butt they would let continue?

    :huh

    Either way. I feel Nate made the best choice for his career because I believe him.

    If Widdow_Maker was smart, he would know that Campbell could have gone blind with blood behind his eye if he kept on fighting.

    I don't think Gatti would have quitted because of that cut, but nobody here can say how bad the cut was.

    this is like toney rahman 2 or judah clottey

    campbell was not gonna make that pace, yeah he was butted but guys went on with far far worst, he said to the cornerman "I cant see" followed by "tell HIM i cant see"

    knowing that a ref or doc has to stop it on that

    doc comes over clears his eye, CLEAR AS HELL BOTH EYES

    "you telling me u cant see out of the eye now?? if theres spots I gotta stop it

    "theres spots"

    I dont buy this for a second, a man blind in one eye with a serious injury caring more about getting a no decision than anything else in the world

    come on
