    Was Chisora vs Pala another bs UK stoppage?

    I haven't seen it yet but some posters are saying this is the case.

    Yes. The ref stopped it too soon in favor of the English fighter.

    No. The ref called a halt at the perfect time.

    They were in tight, Chisora got out of the way and Palla walked into the corner with his back turned and hands spread out. chisora threw two punches, one to the back of the head and one to the chin.
    Ref stopped the fight.
    I guess Palla was hoping the ref would stop the action since he was in a corner and his back was turned.... he kind of did

        Pala turned his back to the action and stood at the cornerpost with his arms down. Imo he didn't want it anymore, and the ref was very much entitled to stop it as it seems like he quit.

        Strange situation, but not a bs stoppage like last weekend.

          No, it was not. I'm British and it was just a stoppage.

            He never should have turned his back. He brought it on himself. Chisora should have been warned for the blatant rabbit punch though.

              Red should have stopped the action after the rabbit punch. Warned Chisora and warned Pala about being turned around.

              Then let the fight continue. The ref panicked.

                  Terrible, ruining the reputation of what is a great boxing country.

                    That's what I think. Should have stopped the action.
                    Instead we get a B.S stoppage, and this was a B.S stoppage
