Good stoppage. Enzo was on ***** st and would have been seriously injured by someone who hits as hard as Haye does.
Good Stoppage.Enzo had to look at his hands just to raise them. His coordination/equilibrium was not there.
He was unsteady for at least five minutes after the stoppage, according to the commentators. Allowing that to continue could have led to serious, catastrophic injury.
The answer is in Enzo's mouth... Watch what he mumbles to the referee as he sags back to the ropes. He complains about his foot. The guy didn't know where he was or what the **** was wrong with him. He didn't even know he'd just been put down by a punch. Seemed like he just thought his foot was ****ed and that's why he couldn't stand up. Gowaaaaan The Hayemaker!! The saviour of British boxing and the heavyweight division.
Actually, you can see in the last 30 seconds the video here that he was helped back to his corner after looking VERY shakey. He was out on his feet, but out he was. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beSvupzdMMY
He was ****ed and unable to stand without support for a few minutes afterwards. When you're already ****ed like that, you ARE open to serious damage. The referee took a good look at him and made the right decision.
Wouldn't have made any difference. Maccarinelli was bigtime on ***** street, ready to go. That's what happens when ya have a glass jaw. :nod
Good stoppage. But after all that buildup, and paying good money to be there you want the fight to go on.
Lol, you've gotten all serious on me. I did say it was a good stoppage. I'm allowed to want to see a fight go on for five, six rounds yes?
How many times was Rocky completely out of it only to turn the table on his foe??? You can't stop an Italian stallion. This fight was stopped way premature...
I think that enzo was stunned badly and didn't show it by the 2nd right hand thrown in the round. Seconds after that haye got alot more confident b/cause of something he saw in macca's eyes. Enzo's positioning lost ground and he got sloppy, and then whamo! lights out! no way could he have continued. Good stoppage!
