Questionable stoppage. The cut wasn't that bad. Especially if you think of what other fighters have been let continue with (Cotto against Clottey and so on).
no doctor just the ref,s decision very questionable. Did,nt like the way darren looked away when he got caught on that performance rock would be to much imo
i think its agiven that prospects fights are stopped quicker than two top fighters Can someone clarify the rule for me Is the ref told to stop the fight when the ighter cannot defend himself or cannot in the res eyes win the fight? This type of thing really erks me , i would just like to see some consistency
Darren took some shot's tonight and his defence will need tightening up but it was good to see him in with an opponent that doesn't just lie down and Rasalev actually made Darren work for his victory. Far better to give Darren a good test than just have him showing off his skills against a human punchbag.
I think darren would have won anyway but i feel the fight was stopped because darren was also being badly marked up must protect their investment :roll:
the cut was not that bad...more like a scratch..but it might not b fully healed in 10 days..his performance was pretty shite 2nite...he needs a little more urgency when he fights...jim rock might kick his ass:good
Guys it was reported that Andy Lee is moving away from detroit to New York pretty soon,thats what he told the guys in Germany last week,but did anyone see an article saying he was going to look for an American promoter to get him in the ring more often and with a better class of opponent. If this is true is it the beginning of the end of Andy and Stewart?Personally i think this could be the making of Andy Lee.I'm sure a top promoter would love to have Andy as one of their prospects.

heard there could be a change of apponet for one of the hylands which will be tougher than original fight and of major interest to irish fight fans
I think I've heard the same as you, liberties, it will be an excellent match-up if it comes off. Hopefully we don't have to be clandestine for too much longer and we get the go-ahead to announce.
Nope Its Eddie against Oisin ***an! there we are Bam Bam spill the beans on Dunne!!! Of course the match up is subject to change.
