    What a ridiculous count. Ali beats a real count easily. Just cause he was going to lose anyway and Ali is not known doesn't mean that should fly. Ref is corrupt or just an a-hole for that. Should be called out.

    Who cares people fighting as knock overs should be overly protected for their own health.

    It's a 10 count, not a 10 second count, to the discretion of the ref, and Ali was out on his feet..

    Don't forget that the round ended 10 seconds early or just under on a Big Frank show when Dubois was in desperate trouble and had been down three times against Lerena and the ref was quick to wave the fight off when Lerena had been dropped and was in trouble despite the fact it was right at the end of the round and he could easily have given Lerena a chance to recover during the 60 second interval which he would've had Dubois been the one in trouble

    Also, you can argue the ref was quick to wave the Davis vs Robles fight last night too. I think Robles was badly hurt but would the refs in all three of these fights have waved the fights off or counted that quickly had the roles been reversed?

    Gnash Ali should have had a lifetime ban after munching on David Price. So don't really care about the count.

    It was a poor stoppage. Ali bounced up and looked ok to continue. The ref was corrupt.

    I don't think it was so much the count as he had been pummeled by those slow ass punches for how long, stoppage was fine to me here.
