Thread: the worst stoppage i have ever seen

WHAT WAS IAN JOHN LEWIS DOING!?!? I think Enzo was fighting a very good as well!

Lewis should be banned for life for that stoppage.

Oh dear god!!!

That was insanely bad. The two best punches of the fight were the two left hooks to the body in the half minute before the stoppage, and they were landed by the guy that got stopped.

Lewis made a BALL'S UP, I feel Enzo should not be fighting but he still is maybe, Lewis did not fancy
seeing Enzo getting sparked.! Not saying he would have, but he's looked very poor and he has had
some nasty KO's . Lewis's face was a picture, he looked like some one had just ran over his dog, bad
stoppage he was in the ring, yes but his brain was on holiday.

enzo was sparked. 4 punch combo wıth makenzie leaning hard into all 4 punches. gotta admit ıts a shıtty stoppage though. the ref shouldve atleast notıced how enzo responded clear-headedly ınstantly. atleast gıve hım a standıng 8. somethıng. anythıng. ıt shouldve contınued but I thınk Enzo was ın a bad spot there and he was def sparked a bıt wıth that 4-punch combo all 4 power shots landıngf well wıth full leverage.

Rather too early than too late, especially with someone like Enzo on the receiving end.

I cant think of anyone that has been more horribly and consistantly sparked out than Enzo Mac and his reputation certainly preceeded him here. Yeah it was early but like I said on the other thread any one of us being the man in the iddle of an Enzo fight would be in like Flynn the moment his head started to wobble around as it did there, twice. We'd go into the fight (as Im sure IJL did) thinking Im going to have to save this guy from a savage sparking.

We dont need referees being brave on a fighters behalf, especially ones like Enzo.

Yes you are right, Enzo is shot he really should not be fighting, and he has been badly Knocked out
too many times for my liking.! You are probable right Lewis, did not want to see him hurt, but he
did not give him the benefit of the doubt.

Bad stoppage, felt bad for Enzo he must be feeling so frustrated. He is getting caught very easily nowadays though, a rematch might be on the cards but with the way Maccrinelli has been performing lately is it worth the risk? Justice might be done to make amends for the stoppagge but at what cost, Mackenzie aint a light puncher either.

Ian John Lewis let Briggs continue against Vitali where it was a terrible beating but wouldn't let Macc take a few good shots? I think the ref was scared to see a bad finish and get criticised, better to be criticised for finishing the fight early as someone said than to be criticised for not stopping a fight soon enough and someone suffer a serious injury.

Terrible stoppage but I don't think any careers have been ruined as a result.

He is normally a very good ref he just made a mistake. Everyone is allowed an off night.

That was one of the worst stoppages if not thee worst I have ever seen. Did he not also ref the Mcphilbin fight.

Look how the red knew it was a mistake he made but went through with it to not look a twat!

True and fort that split second he could have said just carry on but he decided against it.

shame he couldn't go in to an 8 count
