    Weeks needs to be investigated and have his license pulled. He robber Ortiz of getting a few rounds in, the fight getting warmed up, and Ortiz getting a proper KO, and Lawson at least having some closure to a real ending.

        Worst stoppage of 2024 so far. So bad in fact, that it might still be the worst by years end.

          I get that all the punches went unanswered and Weeks was behind Ortiz so he may have been seeing something different than what was happening and with Lawson not throwing back, it kinda “confirmed” wha Weeks thought he was seeing.

          But that’s when, as a ref, you have to move your ass to get a better view of what’s going on. Those punches were all blocked.

          That was a such a **** stoppage, he outdid himself with his Barroso-Romero stoppage.

            Virgil is ok, I’m interested to see more of him, but he’s just ok for me, the Stanionis fight would made me more of a believer, but idk, and I think he wanted to move away from boots division.

              He fought at 154 in his last fight and was going to fight Chris Eubank jr, who fights at 160 and 168.

                Ever since that one boxer died in a fight he was reffing. It’s not corruption, he’s just scared. In that case he should retire if he’s going to stop fights prematurely now out of fear of a boxer dying.

                  The funniest part was the announcer being a YES MAN for Ortiz. "Nobody here is booing you!" ass.
                  What was the crowd chanting, I couldn't make it out.

                    Maybe Tony weeks had somewhere to be. You don’t get paid for over time, easiest pay check he’ll ever make, he’s a hustler

                      Dumb statement. He didn't want to move away from 147, he was risking his health staying at 147. Read up next time on his health issues before making an uninformed comment.
