    I had Hall winning 4 rounds and alot of people were upset with the stoppage at the time regarding 1st fight. That's why as I said they had a rematch because the ending was deemed controversial.

    My point was I never thought Michalczewski was on the same level as RJJ, and I think RJJ would've handled him quite comfortably had they met.

    I don't think any sane person thinks he'd come close to beating Roy. The arguments for him being lineal are very sane though.

    Oh it's very true. At the time of the stoppage DM was clearly ahead & dominating the fight with his jab alone which Hall could no longer see coming, let alone avoid. The idea that DM benefitted from the TKO in the form of a lucky break is clueless mingmongery. DM was clearly fading at this point in his career though if the delusional Hall won 3 rounds he was lucky.

    No it's not true Hall was rearranging his face and Michalczewski was very fortunate not to get stopped, if anything Michalczewski's face looked in worse shape and got a lucky break from the referee.

    It's not the first time Michalczewski was fortunate in a fight remember the Rocchigiani fight ?

    :qmeparto: wtf? There's no way you've even seen the fight to be typing such assbackwards nonsense.

    Here's the clip of what happened during the final round in the real world - Hall lands an uppercut & briefly tries to rally before DM takes control with his ATG jab which had already shut Hall's eye;

    I've watched all of Michalczweski's title fights....I don't need to explain myself to you. Anyone who has seen the fight knows alot of referees would of stopped the fight due to Michalczewski's injuries his face which was getting rearranged. Alot of people thought Michalczewski was lucky not to be stopped in the 1st fight hence why there was a rematch......not hard to work out is it ?

    As for Michalczewski "dominating after 3 rounds" absolutely laughable.

    In Hall's favour? Is that a joke?? At what point in the fight - and on what planet - would that fight have been stopped? Because there was literally NO reason for DM to be stopped.

    Are you just trying to get me banned?
