People that think last nights dq was bs....

[cortdawg25]

Time was called for a low blow in the Zab/floyd fight. Floyd wasn't being counted down after a knockdown when Roger stepped in,the ring

Then Floyd should be disqualified also when Roger gets in the ring during the Floyd-Judah fight!

Technically it was a correct call but in sports a ref Needs to use some common sense. It didn't effect the fight at all he didn't touch his fighter should face been a warning and let's go. Boxing is entertainment and the show should go on if at all possible.

I was curious to see if Kirkland could pull it out and now well never know.

Which rule was broken?

The bell sounded didn't it? End of the round = corner can enter ring. It was a bs DQ. Why is the bell ringing not being mentioned here?

Exactly no rule was broken the dq was bs. I'm noticing a lot of suspect things lately in gloden boy fights.

I think they should have let it go. And I think lirkland probably would have knocked him out.
I gotta rewatch the fight it seemed like Molina was doing something vastly different than what Ward does

[-Spinal-]

No, other than the 10th Molina basically fought exactly the same as Ward did against Green and Froch, just to give recent examples. Lots of people are embarrassed about picking Kirkland last night, and are going to act like Molina was doing something no one else does.

Green, maybe.

Froch, are you kidding me? Froch-Ward was one of the cleanest fights of 2011 I have seen. I remember people were actually surprised because Ward stood in front of Froch and didn't spoil the fight. Now he did?

Green, maybe.

Froch, are you kidding me? Froch-Ward was one of the cleanest fights of 2011 I have seen. I remember people were actually surprised because Ward stood in front of Froch and didn't spoil the fight. Now he did?

He muscled Froch, his entire gameplan consisted of staying close to Froch, pushing him back, and muscling him. He would throw a punch, get close, muscle Froch inside, and hit him when Froch backed away. And not maybe against Green, there were literally entire rounds when Green was up against the ropes all 3 minutes because Ward clinched and muscled him there, and never let him leave.

Basically the same thing Molina did other than the 10th, which I will admit Molina did too much holding in, as he got hurt and was basically hanging on to recover.

John Ruiz made a career out of fighting like that, so did Hopkins late in his career, he did this against Jones in the rematch. Whether it's enjoyable or not is not the point, Molina got screwed.

rules were made to be broken, because no rule is perfect

ESPECIALLY not this one

[Roman Moreno]

This might be true if there was a rule that was broker. But, no rule was broken.

If you're gonna compare this.



To what Molina did last night.

Then I rather not say anything. Look at those exchanges by Ward, Molina never once did that. Ward is in front of Froch for the majority of the time, clinching rarely.

That was a CLEAN fight, and the same Sky commentators that were severely disgusted by Molina last night, are praising Ward for being effective in this fight that you claim it's "the same as what Molina did".

Even if "time" was called the trainer can't go in there. What is stopping the training going in there every time a fighters gets "5 minutes" from giving his fighter sips of water and advice?

You know why you don't see that? Because, you don't can't do it. Yes by the rule Floyd should have been DQ'd. No doubt about, by the rule of the book. Because, no bell had sounded. In this instance, the bell sounded. Once the bell rings he can go in. It signifies the end of the round.
