The outcome was going to be the same had weeks let the fight continue. Great win by Dogboe. Can't wait to see him against Rey Vargas, Luis Nery, or even Magdaleno!!!! Great fights coming up in the division!!!Comment

I totally get what you’re saying, but I feel like you can take certain things into account as a ref, like for example the fact that Juarez is known to get dropped a lot but he has incredible recovery power. His fights show that like the one against Pagara but the best example is against Donaire. Donaire was dropping laser guided missiles on Juarez chin repeatedly the first couple rounds. Dropped him 3 times total I believe, and there was at least one particular time when he was looking like he was about to be stopped for not punching back anymore but then he recovered and fought back. The commentators included Tim Bradley and he was saying he thinks the corner should consider throwing in the towel at that point, around round 3-4 I believe. Juarez kept pressing forward and came back hard down the stretch, using his incredible endurance to batter a clearly dog tired Donaire along the ropes for the majority of the last third of the fight. He didn’t deserve the win because of the knockdowns and all that, but he damn near came back to earn a draw or at the very least made it a damn exciting fight up to the final bell because of his recovery powers and his gas tank. A guy like that, I’d like to think that if a ref is aware a guy has a history of showing that kind of recovery ability that he will give that fighter a little more time or opportunity to show if he can recover rather than stopping it right after a guy gets dropped, without even giving a count. Just my thoughtsComment
