    Mate, some people cannot handle a simple discussion. I love him for his anger.

      Yeah, can't fault the stoppage. Save for the formality of a mandatory 8, fight was done the second Enzo staggered into Keane like a pisshead at chucking-out time. Poor lad was 30 doors down ***** street.



      Would've only bought him a few more seconds, but if Enzo had stayed down after the official knockdown he might have recovered his equilibrium just enough to convince the ref to let him carry on. Unfortunately -- or fortunately in this case, as nobody should require Enzo to take unnecessary punishment just to establish in their mind that, yes, he was indeed a beaten man -- when you get sledgehammered in the head with that kind of force, your wits are hardly where you need them to be.

          Anorak.......... Are you kidding me? Are we 5 years old?

          What are you suggesting, dude??

          I'm a grown man, Anorak. Save the manipulation..

          This guy Mik is disprespecting. That **** don't fly. PERIOD.

          What gives you the stones to insert yourself into the middle of ANYTHING?

          The only person I'm questionably friends with in "TC" is YOU - and I guess this ****in guy Mik or whatever.. I don't give a mother**** about TC.

          I'M OUT. That **** means NOTHING to me, sir. I joined out of respect for the members involved and the invitation. Not for any other reason. I'm not going to have that held over my head. I'm already cool with the people I'm cool with. NOTHING will change that.

          You want to come sniffing around my ass? COME **** WITH ME.

          I don't need NOBODY to help me.. No club, no team, just ME.

              Enzo still looked capable at that point because he made an effort to grab onto the ropes sideways and prop himself up, he didn't fall back onto the ropes so if the ref had called the count it would obviously have affected the scorecards (if the fight went the distance). But a bad move by Enzo, he should have just gone down the first time and taken a count.

              In fact a similar thing happened to Haye in his last fight against Jean Marc Mormeck, he fell back on to the ropes and the referee didn't call the 8 but Haye took the knee which is what Enzo should have done here.. Refereeing was fine in my opinion and a very good stoppage.

                Agreed. The worst ref tonight was in the Diaz vs. Cambell fight in Mexico anyways. But maybe the worst one I remember was in Vegas. Tyson vs. Lewis was as obvious of a bought off ref as I have ever seen. Richard Steel I think.

                  that sums it up plus he should have called it when noodle legs did his dance, dude got rocked! That Haye has some potential at Heavy, Id put points on him against Peter who looked like **** tonight.

                      Taken completely out of context, in isolation - that line is hilarious, if I may say.
