What would we be saying if O'Connor/Parris was the referee?

    I know the ref supposedly has a better view than we have, but that still looked like horse **** to me

    That would send a dangerous precedent I think. Still,awful stoppage but not as bad as the Calzaghe/manfredo stoppage though.

    Seen worse. I didnt watch the fight, watched 30 seconds preceeding the stoppage and he never threw a punch and looked wobbly when he stumbled forward. I wouldn't have stopped it but there have been worse.
