    If Valenzuela had above average punch resistance I might agree with you but he doesn't and the ref did him a huge favour

    There's nothing dramatic about it. Literally yesterday a boxer had to be hospitalized after a fight that wasn't nearly that brutal, and people do die. If refs let fights continue on until one guy was KOd cold every time, we would see a lot more in ring deaths.

    KOs should come from 1 punch, or quickly. Not prolonged beatings.

    Exactly. He was given multiple extended recovery times by the ref. Nobody was trying to deny that kid anything except an extended hospital stay or untimely death.

    Exactly. WtF is it with today's squeamish boxing fans? In my day, fans were PISSED when fights were stopped prematurely like this!

    Don't want to see people knocked out and twitching on the canvas? Go watch a tennis match!

    Round 1 Mares 10-9

    Neither man defending well at all. But Abner outworked him.
