I just rewatched round 7 and the ref was being very very VERY generous with Wilder. Very few people in the US would have complained if the ref had stopped it.
If AJ got Wilder in trouble like that in the UK, Wilder would be 39-1(1).
I don’t know why you’re so offended the fight continued. The fact that wilder walked back to his corner fine, had no concussion symptoms, eyes not glazed, etc.
Also, the two examples you have later were both fighters that were crawling back to their feet when the fight got waived off.
Sure you can say it could have been called off in the UK, but considering the stoppages they’ve been famous for, that’s not a good thing.
I’m not offended the fight continued. I just don’t like being laughed at by a stupid kid who gets his ass beat by shítty kick boxers like he knows more than I do and to top it off he said Wilder was fighting back which he wasn’t.
The point of this thread is Wilder is getting way too much credit for stopping Ortiz when it could have easily been stopped. Before the Ortiz fight, everybody was on board that Wilder was garbage. One fight later, he’s this knockout god which he’s not. People need a reality check.
Well the poster Rexy explained that NYC Boxing Commission was successfully sued recently. Since then they do that kind of thing. He wrote that he's seen that in other recent fights. Who knows what's in the hearts of men?
If that's the case, the ref should just stop the fight.
Changing the course of a fight via a "medical timeout" is not right imho
I wouldn't have stopped the fight but I wouldn't have allowed that nonsense with the doctor either.

I agree
If that fight was in the UK it would have been stopped for sure.
In fact I wouldn’t think there would be too much of a uproar if the referee decided to actually stop it
Obviously the referee made the right decision though by allowing it to continue
I believe he also did the AJ /Klit fight
Quality refs are to far and few between in the sport
British refs jump all over a fighter if he shows the slightest bit of trouble. Wilder wasn't out on his fight and taking unnecessary punishment, nowhere near it. They already took away 15 rounds, now they're supposed to take away epic comebacks and the violence out of the sport? Boxing is already becoming boring, we don't need your ****e to ruin it completely.
Absolute búll****. Referees aren't doctors, they aren't qualified to give anyone a prognosis for their future health. The fight could easily have been stopped, that's why the doctors got involved and they gave him valuable seconds to recover.
The Doctors got involved because they wanted to buy Deontay extra time to recover..it was cheating that's all
It definitely shouldn't have been stopped...that's stupid as hell. Wilder was still very fit and proved it by winning by KO. You should only stop the fight if the ref thinks the fighter is in serious danger of having lasting damage

LOL, YEA STOPPED. Did I stutter? Wilder wasn't still fighting, he was surviving, holding on for dear life, and walking in potholes.
Have a refresher:
The last punch at 4:22 the ref could have slid in to stop it EASY.

Why did Richard Steele stop the JCC vs Meldrick Taylor fight who was up on the cards or why did the ref stop the Crawford vs Benevidez fight? Both could have finished, it happens all the time.

Am in a good mood now, let me allow you to win this round but trust me, am going to KTFO in the later rounds.
why the heck would the ref stopnthe fight with 0.5 seconds left in the rd?

It would have been crazy to stop it there. Wilder already ate some big shots, and just like those times, his legs never got wobbly here. He was grabbing and holding, and doing what he do -- crazy eating shots like GGG and shaking his head "no." Contrast this with Ortiz doing the stanky leg.
Wilder is crazy gifted with youthfulness, strength, and very intense want-to. What is Fury going to do? Wilder was eating shots from Ortiz. Fury isn't going to do S.
Lol stopped? **** no. He was still fighting.

Lolx...... Don't be nuthugger. AJ would have taking him off with a clean flush.
Your agenda is dead on arrival. Go drink some beer bro.
