Travis Walker stopped in about 15 seconds...

Kind of controversial, Walker's hands were at his waists though.

Yep.

Walkers hands were at his waists. The punches looked like they just momentarily stunned him but with his hands down and neck out, I can see how it got stopped.

Yeah I can see how it was stopped, but I don't think he was terribly hurt. He should've waited a couple more seconds to see if he'd fight back. But it's easy for me to say that watching the fight on tv. Who nows what the ref saw in the ring.

It was a couple punches early, but it would have happened anyway. Walker wasn't on the verge of being killed or anything, but he was so stunned and the punches were landing at will.

Sounds like a bs stoppage. Just looked up walkers record and he is undefeated and it sounds like he was robbed. You give a man who is undefeated a benefit of the doubt. How you make it sound, it sounds like Wilson didn't seriously hurt him. Sounds like he might have stunned him for brief second, kind of like what zab judah did to Cotto. And that fight wasn't prematurely stopped.

I agree .. it looked like he was out on his feet for a moment though he recovered quickly.
premature but the last Calzaghe stoppage was even more premature compare to this.

That was a mismatch anyways, this fight was not. Thats the difference between those two fights. And there was no question that Joe Calzaghe was going to end up koing Manfredo, Manfredo got hurt by feather fisted Sergio Mora for christ sakes. Would have been good if that douche ref didn't stop that fight either because I wanted to see peter manfredos weak chin on the ground.

I mean Wilson was throwing some bombs and Walker did look for a moment to be out on his feet, but the ref should have let it go on at least a little longer. Looks like that Walker/Arreola fight is not going to happen now.
