    Unless you want to see a Ray Mercer vs Tommy Morrison type of stoppage, the ref did his job.

    Ike was a beat. Went toe to toe beating the best version of Tua, and tracked down and took out Byrd better than anyone. Lennox Lewis vs Ike could have gone either way.

    ,
    Of course I think I'm right and as you know since you follow my posts closely, I thought I was right before I made this thread! Having everyone agree with me ,which I could have no way of knowing before I made it is a bonus!
    I just claim that no one agrees with you as they didn't on the Bob Foster thread.
    If Byrd thought it was a premature stoppage dont you think he would have said so on his radio show or in one of the many interviews he has given? He hasn't in fact he gave huge credit to Ike for his power saying," that shot would have knocked down anyone."
    You have issues with me which cloud your judgement. I have none with you and so am quite prepared to start afresh if you are willing,it's your call.

    You're implying you're right because folks agree with you or else you wouldn't point it out in the first place.

    Ahem, you done this before and your intentions were rather obvious. Be honest you do have issues with Dago, otherwise you never pen posts like this to smear him.

    So I think you are correct here, but hardly up front and honest.

    No I thought I was right on the other thread and said so.
    If I thought I was wrong, I would not have argued with you in the first place!
    Watching the fight several times over the last couple of days,convinces me I am right and you are wrong.
    I made this thread out of curiosity ,to see how others interpreted the fight,I had no way of knowing how they would judge the stoppage.
    You are just being absurdly pedantic now.
    You can adhere to your belief that it was a gift stoppage that's your prerogative to do so.
    No one's going to want to hang you for it!TBH I doubt anyone gives a ****!
    I've offered you the olive branch ,if you don't want to accept it that's fine.I'm going to bed, I was up at 5 am driving to Suffolk to hunt with my dog,sleep on it and make your decision.

    No I don't have issues with him ,but I think he has with me.That's his problem not mine,I've suggested we have a fresh start, how he responds to that is up to him.
    I give you credit for being honest on the subject of the stoppage.

    What you think about my motives has less importance to me than the **** I just cleaned up out of my dog pens.

    You're the one that replies to my posts and instigates things with me. Outside of the Foster conflict you have 100% instigated everything in recent times.

    I think he's mostly just implying that you have some highly unusual, unpopular views and beliefs.

    Okay, you cant read properly or understand simple English. End of .
    You've come out of this looking like an intransigent arse hole .and its a result entirely of your own construction.
    I couldn't care less.Good night.

    No, you are the one who instigated the friction,by calling me snobbish,and a senile old fool.
    FYI I come from very humble origins, there is nothing in my background that would give me the inclination to be a snob. I am old,69, but I seem to have no trouble holding my own in a debate with you so if my mental faculties are failing, it doesn't say much for yours does it?
    Any way I'm done with you, whingeing and sulking ,you're like a kid with a smacked arse!

    Nobody is wining and sulking here but you. Do you just make up these alternate realities with intrecate storylines in your head? Just about every time you disagree with me you always end up talking about smacking my ass. You have some obsession with my ass?

    Which post about your senile foolishness are you referring to? You have yet to give a plausible response to me. Everything you say has something to do with people agreeing with you, smacking me ass, general insults, or just off topic attempts to duck my posts.

    I look like nothing more than a poster who made you tie yourself up in your own nonsense. You're the one thinking this is some big deal.
