Wait a second, Pavlik vs. Taylor, referee what?

[Fox McCloud]

Are you people serious when you say that any ref besides Smoger would have stopped it in the second?

Pavlik got his face ****ed hard by some Taylor punches, but bounced up at the count of 1 and a half, and then survived the round without much trouble (except for being clubbed in the back of the head). I don't think this fight should have even been considered for being stopped.

Forrest-Mosley I was a case when any other referee in the world would have stopped it, but Pavlik-Taylor was NOT!

There's no way it should have been stopped. There are a few trigger happy referees who would have stopped it but they would have been wrong.

I concur. Pavlik was hurt but it wasn't like he was blown out of the water. Jermain was actually the one holding by the end of the round.

wow to be honest im glad the fight wasnt stopped but pavlik was oing the chicken dance for a VERY long time , sure he popped up quick , so did zab judah , but apparently hes not as balanced haha.

I felt Smoger jumped in a bit to early and should have let Taylor go down and given him a chance to get back up. He let Miranda take way more punishement when he fought Pavlik. At least give the champ a chance to get up from teh canvas.

I disagree, Taylor was clearly out cold and it was a good stoppage by Smoger, there is no way he would've beaten the 10 count.

He has a point, when you compare the way he lets other people fight through the tough times.

best case scenario , taylor beats the count . than what its not like anyone was home anyways so ya i agree just stop it , or else you just would have seen another massive right hand and taylor REALLY would been out cold.

I disagree, Smoger stopped it as soon as Taylor hit the floor, Taylor was the cahmp, he deserved a chance to get off of the canvas. If he doesn't make it, he doesn't make it, but at least give the champ a chance.
