Yes, early stoppages happen all the time but you shouldn't be surprised when people react strongly to them, or try to make a post like this to calm them down from that aspect. Every fight is unique and many felt that Corley could have gone on to win that fight.
As far as that low blow goes, yes, there was a low blow right before that shot you mentioned on the ribs. That's robably what he was reacting to, but yes, in conjunction with the body shot.
Corley was outclassed I guess you could say, but only because he was outweighed. Had Corley gone into the fight a natural 157 lbs I think we all know who to favor in that scenario.
Nothing's changed, Cotto won the fight by TKO in what was probably a premature stoppage, but premature stoppages happen all the time in boxing. Corley was clearly outclassed by a stronger better fighter, and he took that knee because the pain from the body shots was too much for him. In fact, earlier in the match the ref thought Cotto landed a low blow because of Corley's reaction to a clean shot to the ribs.
