Comments Thread For: Horn Overcomes Cuts to Bloody, Stop Corcoran in 11th Round

[Shadoww702]

The ref asked the doc to take a look at the guy, doc say it's fine, ref stopped it shortly after. Doesn't matter what the corner does, ask the fighter, ask the doc, ref makes the decision.

Ever hear of No Mas??,

The corner can stop the fight at any time. It's called "Throwing in the towel" and we just saw Rig.do it. The ref. And doctors didnt even know what hand he hurt. He wanted to quit, told his trainer, the trainer confirmed he wanted to QUIT and then told the ref. We quit...

Damn, I was under the impression that the fight was tonight

the corner advises ref to stop in that case lmao.

Exactly and I've seen plenty of refs ignoring bad advice from cornermen.

Ugly fight, but I am in the vast minority on here that thought the ref did fine in a fight that was more barroom brawl and less real boxing. He did warn both equally. It was entertaining enough, and Jeff Horn threw everything he had (heart, soul, head butts, elbows, so on) and Corcoran responded. Best man did win.

Horn won. Fine job. Crawford ends this in 4 rounds if Horn takes the fight. He is a limited fighter about to be demoted.

wtf I love Australians now! Man, they must have massive schlongs and BALLS OF STEEL!

Onya Jeff, that p4p #1 spot doesn't come without its haters.

Oh, this was today? On what planet do you have a world title fight on a Wednesday? Whatever. Sounds like nothing interesting or unexpected happened.

Once upon a time most world title fights were on a week day.

I enjoyed having some mid week boxing to watch even though it was lunchtime here.

Extremely rare.

If the corner want the fight stopped 99% of the time the ref is going to oblige.
