Should Mosley - Forrest I have been stopped in the 2nd?

Nah...Shane made the count both times and was actually sort of falling under a lot of Vernon's shots because he legs were so ****ed from memory. Makes you wonder though if another ref besides Smoger was there, would they have called it?
I think stopping the fight at that point would have left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths.

There was a point in the 10th aswell where it looked only a few punches from being stopped..Forrest was in complete control, ahead on the cards and he doubled Shane over with some mean body work..Mosley was on the ropes and Forrest was landing unanswered punches but Shane hung in there.

 

I wouldn't have stopped it. He was hurt but he wasn't out on his feet. Shane's got an amazing chin though. That uppercut would have killed anyone else.

 

I think if the bell had not rung when it did the ref probably would have stopped it and deservedly so.

 

I was watching that live in the barracks, and was going crazy!

"OH ****! OH ****! GET UP SHANE! GET UP!"

 

The benefit of hindsight proves it should not of been stopped.

 

And some people said that Floyd was close to KOing Shane. Lol.

 

Did they?

 

uhhhhhhhhh.......no

thats why its called a 10 second count and not a 5 second count

if you show you gained consiousness in 10 seconds after a KD and want to continue than you should be allowed to continue

 

Floyd so close of KOing a prime 38 year old Mosley so they claimed. :rofl

 

Nevermind hindsight; Shane's prestige at the time warranted the benefit of the doubt.

 

No, he didn't - and Vernon hurt a Shane who was as prime as it gets.

 

Why is this even being asked, when it already happened that the referee let it continue, Shane was able to weather it, without suffering any life-threatening or altering injuries after (so far)?

 

this Shane would have starched Floyd.
