    i thought it was an early stoppage, at least see if he gets up, but not a terrible or bad stoppage

    but it doesnt matter Gonzalez would of still stop him

    he was knockout but Mares has a lot of heart

      from these comments it seems that I am the only one that notices that if mares was down at 2:50 and an eight count would take it to 2:58. that will leave Gonzales to walk from the opposite corner and deliver a the KO. As a ref you should be aware of the time remaining in the round, especially a Championship bout. Either Gonzales delivers a falcon punch from the opposite corner, or the round ends and Mares gets 1 min recoup time. No brainer, fight stopped early.

        If you guys feel Mares should of been given the benefit of the doubt. Other fighters that were champion's should of too. Example Dawson vs Stevenson, Dawson was dropped once, and got up on the count of 6, I believe. It was a good stoppage for Dawson considering the fact he took a mental and physical beating from Ward, as well as mental beating from BHop even though Dawson clearly beat BHop. RJJ vs Tarver 2, RJJ got up early in the count too. But RJJ also took more punishment than ever in his 1st fight vs Tarver, even though I had RJJ winning 116-1112 in their first fight. Vlad vs Brewster 1, lennox vs McCall just to name a few. Point is Mares was hurt bad, letting him continue only would of took more damage off the young man career, and he would of never been the same. Example look @ Kahn fight should of been stopped vs Maidana, khan also took punishment vs Peterson. Than took too many punches vs Garcia, I wouldn't be shocked if Alexander vs Khan would be easy for Alexander and a possible KO for Alexander. Khan has not looked good since Garcia. The fighters he fought are not on the level as Alexander no matter how you spin it and discredit Alexander. Look @ JTaylor vs Pavlik, I believe smoger was the ref, and when JTaylor was hurt by Pavlik's 1st right hand he was done for, but yet the ref let him take 6-8 punches before he ended the fight. Point is Taylor was never the same. Now if you look @ the replay from last night on the second knock down Mares took 6-7 flush power punches as he was going down, his eyes were crossed not even including the punch that hurt Mares. I keep reading post about the fight was stopped early, but than the posters say stuff like " Mares would of been KO eventually". Those statements are the reason it was a Good stoppage

          I was hoping that the ref wouldn't stop it, but he did. I'm kinda tired of fighters not being given a full count. Mares could've made it out the round and regrouped had he just been given the chance.

            Early stoppage. Count 8 and let him stand

            Refs and judges need to be schooled again
            Refs let you clinch , some break it right away and some let you fight out of it.
            Like refs and judges have styles

            Let these fighters stand and count to 8. And let them
            Take a few steps toward you and determine

              Mares had no problem, neither should we.

                Given the circumstances, the ref stopped it to early. The round was almost over, had Mares been issued the 10 count, the bell would have rung allowing Mares to try and recoup between rounds.

                I am not a fan of either fighter, just a boxing fan.

                  Boxer cannot be saved by the bell! To think posters call themselves fans of boxing, but yet don't know the "Basic Rules"

                    It's like you can't go wrong with either choice, personally I felt Mares should have been given another chance.

                      Agreed on both accounts, I was starting to think I was the only guy here who had any brains left lol
