Since When A Fight Stopped for Broken Nose?

So technically a fighter can get hit low or behind the head or whatever illegal blow and say he cant continue and it will go to the cards right? but how often does that happen? NEVER. they take their little rest and continue on fighting. I lost a bit of respect for mikey, its not like it was some devastating injury to fight through it was only a broken nose probably the most common injury in boxing.

Well Garcia is a young fighter, he is just coming up so yes he need a bit of protection when he can get it, his trainer saw one and took it.

Fighters fight. Rocky Marcaino fought with his nose hanging off his face... Right. Rocky didn't ask the ref to stop the fight. http://www.sweetfights.com/cut.jpg

Thats not the point here. You arnt telling knowbody nothing we all dont know. So you can stop with your usless copy and paste bullslt! Fighters fight. Rocky Marcaino fought with his nose hanging off his face...Gatti fought with both eyes shut...Ali/Roy jones jr foght with Broken Hands...Ribs! Arthur Abraham Fought a 12 round fight with a broken Jaw he got in the 4th round! do you get the big picture now...its not about rules dumbass...its about warrior status. This is Boxing...Fight on! Bro, you should cut Mikey some slack. He was dominating the fight. He is smart and took advantage of a situation. If he was losing on the cards then is the time to fight on. Salido needs to learn and come up with a different gameplan on the rematch.

who the fu*k broke a rule?????? You would know if you actually knew anything about boxing.

Garcia is cagey and he isn't afraid to bully or coax the commission to do his bidding. It's not the first time this has happened. http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=569128 Yea I remember Robert Garcia pulled the same shit in the Gato Roman fight.

when the doctor stops it

.its about warrior status. This is Boxing...Fight on! So let's just ignore the rules! :pat:

lol it wasnt a broken nose cause by a punch it was a headbutt lol it wasnt even a head clash between both, Salido just drilled him with his head

Since When A Fight Stopped for Broken Nose? Garcia corner new there fighter was fading and called in doctors and ref to stop fight. You see Robert Garcia asking ref "we go to the cards right" then encourages for fight to be stopped. Pussy move if you ask me. I dont remember Marquez fight being stopped for broken nose. to be honest Marquez is from another generation. he comes from another cloth...........even saldios eye was swollen shut but he still fought on. with the robbery all in all bad night of boxing..........

It was an injury caused by an accidental headbutt. Any educated boxing fan knows that when a fight is stopped due to an injury caused by a foul, the fight goes to the scorecards. Why the hell would Garcia keep fighting with a broken nose caused by a headbutt if he knew he would win on the cards?

If an unintentional foul causes the bout to be stopped immediately, the bout is ruled a "no contest" if four rounds have not been fully completed. (If the bout was scheduled for four rounds, then three rounds must have been completed.) If four rounds have been completed, the judges' scorecards are tallied and the fighter who is ahead on points is awarded a technical decision. If the scores are even, it will be called a "technical draw." http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/Rules_of_Boxing
