Comments Thread For: Wallin: My Fight With Fury Should've Been Stopped On Cuts

[markther]

No one wanted to see Wallin as HW champion of the world, LOL!!! With the rules, it would have been ruled a TKO loss for Fury.

What a ****** thing to say.

It wasn’t stopped and Fury won, so it was the right decision because Fury was able to fight on.

Of course we have seen fights stopped with cuts like that. But we’ve also seen bull***** stoppages when fighters get dropped, it doesn’t make it the right decision. So next time any fighter get’s dropped, we can refer to a past bad stoppage and say “well he should’ve been stopped by the ref” because it happened before. It doesn’t work that way.

For me, it just shows a weak mentality of fighters when they look for a victory in a situation that they don’t control, i.e looking for a ref or doctor to stop the fight.

If you’re good enough to win, you’ll do it on your own terms, not on a judgement of a doctor.

Great post a fighters stance on it shouldn't be should've, could've, would've or what if. Once the fight is over win lose or draw move on to the next one and always try to be a little better than yesterday.

99% of fights with cuts like that would have been stopped. They definitely did Fury a favour.

I should’ve done a better job of making them stop it.”

Wallin himself acknowledged that it was up to him to force the stoppage.

Wallin himself acknowledged that it was up to him to force the stoppage, especially considering the circumstances of Wilder-Fury 2 on the horizon.

Wallin could easily have been DQ'd for trying to illegally open Fury's cut too.

Really one of the dirtier things I've ever seen in boxing, although it did make me laugh when I saw it live. What audacity.

Refs have helped Fury twice slow count vs Wilder and cuts in last fight should have been stopped.

I will give you the slow count as debatable but Fury helped himself against Wallin by winning the rest of the rounds after he sustained the cut.

To say otherwise would be like saying that a fighter should be awarded a victory just because his opponent looks tired.

The fight should have been stopped but Fury won , you’re comparing a legit loss when Wilder was out boxed to Fury still outboxing Wallin so no Fury didn’t lose to Wallin .

It wasn't officially a win against Wilder though it was a draw.

If you want to claim it as a win you have to go the other way on fights he didn't desrve to win.

For example how Fury beat Cunningham. Even Fury admits he held and hit him to KO him... You can have the Wilder win if you take the Cunningham DQ loss.

Agreed If this was a lower tier fight with small stakes it would have been stopped. But also agree Wallin needed to attack that cut until Fury looked like the elephant man to force the Ref’s hand

Diaz vs Farmer wasn't stopped and youndont see Farmer complaining .

[Nomadic]

It would've rivaled Ruiz's win over AJ minus the belts.
