    We are agreed that Tank has a very good chin. Not sure this is par of the course with Wood. I even saw his legs twitch on the floor when he went down. I feel Wood was not as defensively responsible as he should have been.

    He was Fury-Wilder 1 flatlined against Conlan, twitching feet and all. Then he came roaring back and put Mick in the ****ing hospital. Give him a few seconds to show what he's got for **** sake.

    My point is prior to that he had been causing damage to Wood during the fight having a visible effect and this time he got him good times him with a hook he did not see coming. Nothing lucky about it at all.

    Yes but tonight he Lara was the one doing the hurting. He Lara actually showed good ring generalship and know how.

    Wood had also been causing internal damage, Lara was huffing and puffing and looked dead on his feet. Wood had a defensive lapse, and Lara landed on a sweet spot. Still wasn't enough to keep him down for a 10 count though. The fight should've continue. Ben Davison is a *****.

    Wood was the ring general
    Clearly. And again, Wood hurt him numerous times and was winning the fight handily

    I mean... he was up instantly, following the refs instructions, the ref told him to put his hands up, he heard the instructions and put his hands up to continue. Ref was looking at him closer then Ben was and was about to let the fight continue.

    I'm not sure I buy that he didn't know where he was at.

    Now... if he was just staring blankly at the ref, had to be told multiple times to come forward or raise his gloves... maybe I'd understand a bit more... but he's there, he bangs his gloves together, ref asks him to raise his gloves and he responds instantly.

    I just can't not view this as a bad stoppage.

    That's a pretty standard knock down for the sport.

    If you support stopping the fight on that knock down, when fighters responding to the ref, when the 10 second alarm just went off, I mean, what genuine knock downs are you not in favor of being stopped. I find it to be a pretty standard knock down.

    The 10 counts not just about flash knock downs... its about allowing fighters that are genuinely hurt a chance to continue. The refs looking at the guy, gives him instructions, they are followed immediately.

    And Wood instantly goes striaght to the corner and complains / objects.

    Im normally pretty soft when it comes to stoppages, but idk...

    He panicked like a woman, evidently he has a strong emotional attachment to Wood. Much more so than he does with Fury. **** him, he can fend for himself.:lol:

    Well the guy beaten up today was Wood just look at his face and he went down and was stopped. I know you think you know everything but you don’t and are wrong on this. I think Davidson a trainer I don’t rate that highly saved him from a worse defeat and saved him to fight another day in big fights against Warrington and rematch with Lara where they need to adjust tactics otherwise you get the same result.
