Does he not realise in boxing people get hit? He just cant ****ing wait to stop a fight! Terrible terrible ref robs fighters of the chance to weather a storm and come back. Imagine if he did the AJ Wlad fight last week?
Along with Vic Louchlan best refs in U.K., watch Howard's eyes he was looking right a Sutcliffe after the right hand and please note no complaints from Philips corner
I didn't see the fight however I think Foster is one of the best refs we have. He sometimes stops a fight before the unnecessary punches land. He knows when a fighter has nothing left.
I think he stops some fights a bit early , but like most refs - there not going to stand there and let the fighter take unnecessary punishment, if there not fighting back
I think he is shockimg for stoppages. This is boxing people get hit and get in trouble. If Foster had been in charge of AJ Wlad he would have stopped it in the 5th. You have to give the fighters a chance to recover
Someone should do a bit of digging and look at the betting for these fights. Might explain some of his stoppages.
He's currently thinking about stopping a fight before the contracts have been signed by the fighters.
it is very easy to stop a fight when the boxer is flat out in a coma....! i am not a Howard Foster fan but i thought he was bang on with that stoppage,especially watching the slowmo replay
