Jessel Mark Araula Magsayo vs. Rey Geovani Vargas Roldán & Brandon Figueroa vs. Carlos Castro RBR.

Little early there I would say! He was still fighting back, in fact was getting Figueroa into some trouble.

 

man I was saying good ref but he stops fight where I thought could have could kept going

 

Well, I was ready to go on a tirade.....but Castro ain't complaining at all..

Looked absolutely rotten to the core

 

replay...does look like an early stoppage

 

Damnit I missed the finish!

 

Seeing a better view makes the stoppage considerably less egregious.

 

Tim Cheatem had Castro up at stoppage. Dude is ****ing blind

 

It seems like Figueroa hurt Castro before he turned him to the rope, could have let it a bit longer but I think Figueroa would have stopped him eventually.

 

This might come from my baseball background (where even briefly arguing with officials is grounds for ejection from the game at all levels), but I don't want there to be an expectation that if a fighter doesn't stage a protest after a stoppage it's assumed he agrees with it.

I'd rather hear it straight from the fighter or just judge for myself.

 

You could give Castro 2 4 and 5.. and that's being generous so maximum it's a tie on the score

 

Navarette vs Figueroa would be a very interesting match up. Figueroa has to be up there as one of the really awkward fighters, but somehow he is very effective. I still don't get how he can generate power when his shots look so weird and always looks like he is smothering his own punches, but if it works it works.

 

Yeah, just a bit before the stoppage he was firing back looking dangerous but seeing it from the front he definitely looked like he was done.

I think another few seconds could have given since Figueroa isn't some Inoue/Wilder one punch fatality type, but as they say better a moment too early than a moment too late.
