Ref should let people go down

[Combat Talk Radio]

Know what happens when the ref doesn't properly stop fights?

Magomed Abdusalamov.
Gerald McClellan.
Michael Watson.


The list goes on and on.

McGregor was eating FLUSH shots for a straight minute. That's dangerous.

It was an appropriate stoppage.

Floyd hit him on one side of the ring and he spaghetti legged to the other side of the ring.

It was over.

Exactly right. There was literally no need for it to continue, none what so ever. Just because you don't go down, does not mean you haven't been decisively beaten. He had nothing left gas tank wise, was being caught clean, backing up and not throwing back...He had succumb. No need in wanting to see him go down to confirm anything, it was conclusive enough as it was.

Pretty much, now I wanted to see one of them go down too because it would have made it an even better night and it was awesome already. But at the end of the day I'm all for health being of the first priority and the ref saved Conor from himself.

I'm NOT OK with those early stoppages, like what happened with mcgregor, kovalev, and many other too early stoppage.

Unless one is leaning on the ropes unconcious or taking extreme punishment, the referee should let the fight finish like it's supposed too.

Those early stoppage feel like fcking and have to pull the diikk out when you are about to come.

Let the KO happen, let the man hit the fcking canvas.

I 100% agree especially considering last night the ref jumped in as Mayweather missed 2 punches.

The rules state that if a boxersb ody is held up by the ropes (based upon refs opinion) then it can be counted as a KD. The ref should have provided a count. Mac was nowhere near hurt enough for it to be instantly stopped.

Protected fighters always get Bull**** stoppages, referees are like principles stopping a school fight and ****.

[French-Punch]

Are you kidding man ? You wanted McGregor to get killed ?

Because that's exactly what would have happened if the fight would have continued. The guy refused to go to sleep, he stayed on his feet like a ****ing ****** despite suffering from severe concussion (lack of coordination), completely defenceless against the ropes waiting for that final blow to take his life.

I'm ok if a guy like Ali gets bullied in the ropes, i know he has a good chin and he gives clear signs that he is still alive. But let's be serious, Mcgregor looked like a ****ing zombie at the end and it was his first pro boxing fight anyway, that was already way too brutal for him.

Lmao this N1GG4 actually thinks Floyd can Mago somebody. I don't even think he could drop his b1tch. Byrd would step in.

Exactly...Conor would be too proud to quit outright, he may have taken a knee or started to seriously back away/run in order to avoid the punishment and I also cant imagine his corner pulling him out either if he made it out the round. So Conor was either going to have to fight back and end up going down or cover up and be waved off and he chose not to fight back - any sane ref would stop that and that is what happened. People just wanted to see a huge highlight reel KO after all the attention and build up thats all. I get it, but theres no need in that situation.

Anyone can get damaged when you take punches to the head.

I'm really tired of people who claim Floyd has no power. He doesn't have one-punch knockout power, but he's got enough power to keep you honest and, every fighter worth their stuff who faced Floyd will gladly admit he's got power.

Let's not forget, he just stopped the 170lb gorilla in the standup game. Something NOBODY in MMA could do.

Done.

A gorilla who's footwork was all fucced, steadily threw arm punches all night. Boss up, and wake up to a world of logic and common sense.
