Should've Joe Cortez stopped the fight in the 10th round?!

[Republica]

Theres no reason that Cortez should have stopped the fight

Getting hurt doesnt mean the fight gets stopped

And Maidana did catch him with huge shots all throughout that round but he survived

Not like the first one that wobbled him if you saw that replay. That was so hard with lots of leverage, right on the button, and not seen by Khan. 1 or 2 more of those kind and Khan would've never been the same.

He shouldn't have stopped it. What he should have done was get the fuck out of the way..

Khan was the champion, A championship boxingmatch like that shoudlnt have been stopped, especially when khan was so far ahead and was still going, he was even throwing the odd punch/combination back... and smiling, throwing his hands in the air....

Well yes he was caught with a punch he didnt see coming and that was the main reason he was so hurt

But after he was hurt, he is now in defense mode and isnt going to be caught with suprise punches with his hands down

[Motofan]

As much as I dislike anyone who works with Freddie Roach, no, the fight should not have been stopped. Khan was out on his feet, but he fought back.

I don't agree with that because Khan was knocked out nasty by Prescott, took at least 3 or 4 hard flush shots after he was wobbled the first time, and came back to show a better chin than he did in that fight. IMO, Khan would have been KO'd before sustaining the kind of damage that ruins a fighter. Maybe if he had been hit with those shots spread out throughout the fight, but it didn't happen that way.

what does him smiling have to with anything? alot of boxers smile when they are getting their ass kicked

We have all seen fighters in less trouble have their fight stopped. The fact that he won, does not change the fact that he was out on his feet and turning his back (submitting) on Maidana when Casino Joe, stepped in to save his ass.

[STRUGG]

nope.....................hell no dawg.....................amir got it under control why thell should cortez stop it..............

[bojangles1987]

Hell no. Khan was never completely out of it.

Cortez saved Khan's ass in that round the way he kept breaking the two up whenever they were close. Maidana almost certainly closes the deal if Cortez doesn't suck as a ref.
