    Watch fights like the Rid**** Bowe vs Lewis fight, or the stoppages in london 2012, only a few guys where really hurt, most of the referees start a standing 8 count after 3 clean punches or just one hard shot, also if a person gets two standing 8 counts, the fight is over, even when the rules dictate that the fight is stopped after 3 counts.



    i've seen all fo the fights in question. whatever was available in london on my american TV, anwyay.

    stoppages in the amateurs are still rare, more rare than pro fights at the top level, and that's primarily because of the length of the fights. if a guy's getting stopped regularly you have to wonder why he's not able to simply survive. having a poor chin may be a contributing factor. luckily, in the pros, those 8 or 10 oz gloves are a litmus test even when you're on your way yup and aren't fighting hellish pnchers

      Without doubt one of the best prospects in all of boxing!right now! Over 400 amateur fights & a two time Olympian. EK moved to the States in 2013 to chase an American dream.

      Power, hunger, pedigree & skill! There is something about this kid that smells like a star! Currently 14-0, he trains with Lomachenko often.. Not just a puncher either! Watch the way he uses his body for leverage, its stunning, especially his catch and counter step back hook! Keep an eye on him..
      seems decent....looks like he'd get blitzed by Spence in a battle of up and comers....dude is very square with no headmovement

      im digging that check hook though

        Rid**** Bowe was knocked down and stopped many times as an amateur, still no one questions his chin, i'm not saying that Egidijus has a good chin, but isn't proved he hasn't.
