What kind of stoppage was that?

[just the facts]

Wrong!

If a fighter is completely done thats fine i don't give a Damn what race he is. But like I said rolly wasn't as done as you conveniently make it seem. He was aware snd responded to what the ref asked.

and your not answering my question your trying to be PC you ain't fooling anyone. I asked if Tank was in rollys position do you think the ref/pbc would have called it that fast? Be honest now we all know the correct answer so let's see if you can keep it real?

Virtually every poster in this thread agrees. Rollie was DONE! I know that doesn’t fit your biased agenda but that’s how it happened.

I guess you’re too ****** to understand my post. Any fighter (Tank, Rollie, Pac, Canelo, JMM, Ali, Foreman, Donaire, Chocolatito, Estrada, Bivol, Robinson, Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, Sanchez, Whitaker, Usyk, Fury, Wilder, Chavez Sr, Chavez Jr, Olivares, Pintor, Fenech, GGG, Crawford, Spence, Galaxy, Wlad Klitscho, Vitali Klitscho, Archie Moore, Davey Moore, Duran, DeJesus, Pryor, Arguello, Mancini, Camacho, Zarate, Zamora, Beterbiev, or any phuckin body else) that is concussed as bad as Rollie was, needs to be stopped. For you to think that the referee should have let that fight continue because then you would have to give credit to a black fighter doesn’t speak well of your moral character. Same old Kid Bazooka.

Did you see him staggering down the isle going back to the dressing room he was still gone 10minutes later.

If you stand a foot away from a guy that is gone his eyes are like a dead fish, the ref saw he was gone, it's dangerous territory in that situation nobody wants to see anybody seriously hurt.

Rolly also lost his perma-scowl that is always etched on his face. You know he's not all there if he's not scowling.

The fight needed to be stopped. Romero was out of it well past the fight being stopped.

Damn.. He doesn't know the fight even happened here. That's pretty serious damage.

I am very happy, for the sake of boxer’s well-being, that none of you are ref’s.

That actually the perfect example of being “out on your feet”. The guy’s eyes were crossed, he did the Bambi dance twice when he got up. Once while standing still right after getting up. And the second time when the ref asked him to step to the side (while observing his legs).

The ref, an actual professional, trained to identify when a fighter is hurt and act accordingly, thankfully stopped the fight and prevented a badly hurt Rolly’s from taking an unnecessary beating.

Who ever thinks Rolly would have survived that round, had he been allowed to continue, is simply a fool.

I saw that video over the weekend. My god, this guy said the fight was a Draw, and then said he hasn’t been hit by Tank. He was clearly done. Who ever would have allowed him to continue fighting after the KD, would have been in serious trouble with a lawsuit for neglecting their duty as a ref to protect the fighters.

This guy forgot he fought Tank, minutes after fighting him but he was still fit to fight after that concussion-inducing punch.

The sad part is that if such an obvious decision to stop a fight goes over some people’s heads, imagine for non-obvious life-threatening beatings? Like Adonis Stevenson and Magomed Abdusalamov? They weren’t immediately obvious, in real-time, during the beatings.

This WAS obvious, and still there’s a few Neanderthals going around saying it was a premature stoppage.

Man... I just quoted a video above where Rolly thought the fight hasn't even happened yet in the postfight press conference.
I would point the delusionals arguing for nothing to that clip. One guy is telling him, "Rolly you just lost. You were KTFO."

[BoxingIsGreat]

Maybe he hasn't regained his senses fully until the next day. Poor Rolly.

Wow can you read or are you just evading the question?

i don't care if you think the fight should have been stopped or not I'm not asking that you idiot. I'm asking if you think the ref/Pbc would have stopped it that fast if the roles were reversed?

You know damn well you would have Ellerbe screaming his lungs out to HOLD so the ref let's it go and the HOUSE ref would have done just that but you don't wanna answer the question your indirect with your BS.lol

You don't seem to want to answer a question that may make a black fighter look bad..yet you accuse me of the very same **** you do. Hypocrite at its finest no surprise there. Your not fooling anyone here we all know your pro black but you hate it when someone else doesn't cheer your way. You say I'm pro Latino but your pro black who the **** are you to judge someone when all you do is praise black fighters and bash everyone else. Everything is racist but if ya do it it's all good no biggie. That's the real issue here. THAT'S the facts and you know it.

You have Latinos, Asians, whites supporting black fighters all the time, athletes Ali, Tyson, Floyd, LeBron, Jordan etc they wear their shirts hats etc. Now tell me how many black fans support non black athletes?

Black Chavez fans non
Black Oscar fans hell no
Black canelo fans no way
Black Messi fans ****tttt
black pac fans nope
black Ronaldo fans lol yea sure
Black kambosis fans lol only when he faces a Latino.

Don't talk to me about racist mfer when your notorious for that ****. You and any mfer that acts like you are the ones that need some soul searching. Badly!!!!

[KidDinamita]

That's nonsense; he was caught with a nice shot and got up; he should've been allowed to continue. I've seen fighters recover from worse shots.I demand a Davis vs Romero II

Referee asked Romero to walk to the left (which he didnt), and he didnt even know where he is. Romero just went straight out of the ring immediately after the stoppage.

[mosquito3]

and it was nothing like tzsyu/Judah who stumbled forward and fell down twice when counted out or did you conveniently forget that. If it was a legit stoppage I would call it but it wasn't.

Rolly was worse than Judah man. Judah lost his equilibrium but he actually was aware of where he was and what happened, and was able to answer the referee. Rolly was completely off, he struggled to stand up, he had no clue what happened and where he was, his gaze lost... referee had to tell him twice to move on his left and when he did his legs were still messed.
Good stop from the referee, let him continue would have been very dangerous
