    Ishida is a tough call. Didn't see enough of him to know how good he is versus how bad Kirkland is now. I mean that few KO's he doesn't seem like he would be all that exciting to watch, but hell, he earned a second shot on a televised card regardless I guess. Not sure Golden Boy will invite him back anytime soon though. :lol:

    Good stoppage. If he continued and got ktfo Cortez is a bad ref.

    As I said above, there seems to be an unwritten rule to use the 3KD role when a fight isn't considered important. Even more so with younger fighters sometimes.

    They might not have been the hardest punches in the world Kirkland looked ok, but he went down 3 times. If a boxer goes down 3 times in a round it is reasonablefor any refree to stop it.

    Theres no guideline rule to stop a bout, its just referee's intsincts.




    Also u were watching on tv, he was there feeling the action & could see kirklands eyes at time of stopage.

    True about GBP, but I would like to see a bit more of Ishida. And hell, he deserves a payday after that performance, even if he stinks the joint out. Give him a co-headline on FNF or something.:good

    Nothing wrong with Cortez“s actions last night. The ref in Katsidis-Guerrero fight was biased and deserves critic.

    I'd call it a "not-terrible" stoppage, but I certainly don't think it's a good stoppage.

    Kirkland was getting hit Clean and hard.

    The stoppage reminded me of Vlads loss to Sanders .

    Do we need to see Hatton or Williams like stoppages every week???

    Good stoppage from a very good ref.

    Yup. Their Old Crustacean barleywine. I have a couple in my cellar from each of the last two years. It is amazing. Also, their Morimoto Imperial Pilsner is pretty awesome too, but I wouldn't cellar it. :good
