    It's like the stoppage of Taylor vs Chavez. It's not the jobs ref to think about the fight and what happened before, it's his job to take care of the fighter, and when one more clean big shot can mean serious head trauma, you stop the damn fight.
    Totally different situation. Not even closely related.

      No doubt about it. He even said it after the fight.

      He wanted to continue and Tony Weeks robbed him of a victory.

        What did you feel watching that last night man?? Sad sad night watching JLC go out like that.

        He deserved a better career. First ballot HOFamer imo.

        to JLC for the memories.

        You should make a JLC tribute thread my man. You're the best man for the job.


        yeah that was pretty depressing undercard... to see JLC struggling like that, especially cause he looked so old and worn down


        but I was happy about seeing Soto get a belt on the undercard

          nah it was a good call by the ref. castillo's head was looking up and his hands were hanging down. he was out on his feet.

          what i can't get over was how corrales kept spitting out his mouthpiece to get some extra time to rest after those knockdowns. i felt castillo deserved to win this one.

            Not at all. Head straight up, hands at his side, against the ropes, taking punishment in a war all night. Castillo later admitted the stoppage was fair himself.

                Take one good look at Castillo's face when the fight was stopped. He would have been a vegetable, if he even got up.

                  Totally different situation? Why is that?

                    No, he was out on his feet, Castillo has never complained about the stoppage, just about Corrales spitting out his mouth piece.

                      I didn't think is was a bad stoppage. I just thought Corrales should have already been Dq for the mouthpice ****. He was hurt and just leaning on the ropes, so the ref should have stop it.
