    Howard Foster the life saver...

    .... another fine performance from Howard there.

    If I were him, I'd have stopped it at the opening bell, but good old Howard let them fight on. Well done Howard. Thank the Queen for such impartial officiating.

    God forbid that the guy gets an 8 count before it's stopped. Just terrible.

            Ohh, Im sure he would have done the same for Degale. Hes all about protecting fighters health in there, a true hero.

                That was Phil Edwards.

                Howard Foster... Phil Edwards... Terry O'Connor.... we have the best and most impartial refs in the world over here.

                If you're a British fighter in trouble, they'll get stick for letting you carry on, and if you're a foreign fighter in no trouble they'll get stick for stopping it. These poor refs can't win in the eyes of some fans.

                  The other televised fights had both gone the distance, when they probably weren't expected to. The show was running behind and they were rushing interviews and ring entrances. I wouldn't be surprised if Foster was under orders to hurry things along if the chance presented itself. Because that was an awful stoppage, even by Howard's standards. How do you stop a guy who's never been stopped, before even looking into his eyes and checking on his condition? Complete joke.

                    No. But he did stop the first Froch-Groves fight for no good reason. Everyone made lots of money on the rematch though...
