    Foster is notorious for quick stoppages favoring the promoter's fighter. Looks like Warren is not taking any chances.

    Jesus Christ was hoping for a real war but with Foster he'll probably stop it just as it starts to get exciting.

    Foster's stoppage of the Wardley fight was clearly ridiculous. So he gets rewarded with a bigger fight.

    It's just one big old boys club isn't it.

    I'm hoping The Juggernaut can make a real statement here. And isn't prevented doing so by Foster.

    If Zhangs corner sprays water on him to hard Foster will stop the fight ! The refs job is to look after both fighters and not be biased against the away fighter giving premature stoppage wins time after time after time .

    Same old story, you have to be 100% and fight every single man in this country to beat home fighter.


    Usyk was too good for AJ, I don't think any other fighter will have same success at HW in recent years in the UK.

    Honestly, Zhang's team should threaten to back out of the fight if that referee is allowed in there.

    Who are they going to get to replace Zhang on two days' notice? They can replace the ref with ANYONE.

    You only have to go back two weeks to see that referee has no business in there.

    I've been looking forward to this "War" ... and I feel like it's already "been stopped early." And they haven't even got in the ring yet.

    Zhang isn't winning regardless of ref. Still a good fight though.

    Howard Foster missed his true calling in life. Moving on kids from park play equipment once they have had their go.
