I don't think it should've been stopped. Yes, Bute was in the corner, but the ref should've asked him to walk towards him. If he was able to do so, I think that (considering it was the 12th round and he was headed for a decision victory) he should've let it continue.
Bute-Andrade should be a NC

besides the fact of the super long count, he was completely out, even steve smoger would've called that without a question. he wasn't on ***** street he was knocked back to romaniaComment

For me, Bute looked out on his feet, he clearly couldn't walk properly let alone protect himself so it should have been stopped on safety grounds as soon as he himself, fell on the ropes before hand.
As for the count, bloody ridiculous.
It should be a NC I agree. I also think a re match is a shame because it's a waste of 6 months in not only their careers, but others like Kessler and Taylor and such, whom could be cracking on if it wasn't for this ****. Plus Butes wise to Andrades game now so will be better prepared and try not to get caught, leaving Andrade less likely to win be it points of KO.Comment

I personally felt that the fight should have been stopped.
He was completely out on his feet. Only the ropes held him up.Comment

I live in Vancouver B.C. and that was a MOTHER ****ING DISGRACE. Andrade should be champion of the world right now, but again the sport of boxing fails to beat controversy and unfair hometown decisions. I like both guys and I had no pick coming into this fight (I had a feeling Bute would win a close UD) but that was ungodly. Librado Andrade should be given a belt like one of those ****** interim belts just to mark who the true champion is.
It wasn't a matter of heart, HE WAS OUT.Comment

This **** pissed me off, I was hoping on seeing a good fight, but ended up seeing this bull****. Bute was KO on his feet and was being held by the damn ropes and far too many people noticed that so it truly isn't our minds playing tricks on us.Comment
