    Agreed but that statement only puts into stark relief the nonsense of the stoppage, crolla was just as able to defend himself as he was at any point. Which wasn't to any great degree but you know what I'm saying

    Yes! Rakhim Chakhiev's fearsome title reign as WBC Baltic Crusierweight champion continues with a 1st round KO of ex-Contender Jaidon Codrington on the Balzay-Sartison undercard.

    Nice result for my fantasy league team there. If Mares can win tonight, and pick up a belt at a new weight, I reckon I might be up there or thereabouts in the lead

    Thats not what I meant, I know that thats not the criteria...I was merely stating that in my opinion Matthews would have finished it the next time he went seriously on the offensive. Definately an early stoppage but I don't think that it ultimately affected anyones win/loss column.

    Anyone watch Barrera replay on Box Nation?

    Serious beating over 3 minutes.

    You know what's strange about Crolla though.. I still reckon Crolla would've given Erik Morales a good fight.

    Yep Trot, I'm not defending the stoppage just pointing out that the time left in the round isn't a factor when the ref is deciding whether to step in or not.

    the crolla - mathews fight is certainly a big domestic upset , i had the fight 47-47 at time of stoppage and the fight i think was stopped far too early as there were only seconds left in the round.

    degale i have to say got rid of a guy who many thought would take him late in the fight and even to points...30-27 at time of stoppage


    jamie moore was spot on when talking about the stoppage , he said that he could have understood the stoppage if the fight had been one sided. It wasnt and it was a premature stoppage.

    I'm not sure we learned from the DeGale fight- here's hoping he fights someone in the world top ten next time.
