    Whaaaat the fack with these stoppages , Ok both of them stoppages were EARLY , its like the local only has to land ONE big shot and the ref has the excuse they want ,, bollocks ,

    Its gonna cost the promoters big money , because you just will not get a big name coming to England UNLESS they get paid very well

    People might understand now (myself included) why the likes of Andre Ward have no intention of coming to the UK to fight.

    Yep i was very critical of Ward but i don't blame him for not fighting in the UK, he'd get stopped after taking a few punches Tonight so far has highlighted how **** British boxing has become

    I agree, both early and in big fights with a lot on the line.

    Is that because he would be drug tested and not allowed to head butt and clinch at will?
