Was roach right in stopping the fight?

That seventh round was just brutal .....I would have thrown in the towel.

No doubt......some fans think a fighters still OK if they dont get KOd/KD.......you think theyll give up a part of their paycheck when their fighter is hospitalized.........

...All these things mixed together can lead to something horrible happening...

Or, all these things mixed together can lead to a miracle happening. I recall the last fights of Boom Boom Mancini, and Hector Macho Camacho which produced miracles in the later rounds. Even the Froch fight produced a miracle.

Gerry Peñalosa had minor scratches, no cuts in the face not even swollen. He was not staggering nor was knocked down. The last seconds of the 9th round, he was still fighting and hit JuanMa with bombs.

Roach should have given him at least one more round. All the slurred speech of Roach required the answer of `yes`, except the last one. Gerry said he was ok, the assistant trainers said he was ok.

No wonder more people shift to UFC where only the referee and fighter stops the fight, not mere part-time trainers who knows nothing about their fighters.

It is how he got his last title anyway, in the final rounds. It`s how he fights.

Go watch UFC then..........i rather have boxers stay healthy rather than have bloodthirsty fans crying out or pretending they know their fighter much more than their actual trainer............

It was the right call, Penalosa would have just taken more punishment.
