Possibly the Worst Stoppage Ever

Watched all this fight and is wasn't too bad atall, Harris was always throwin back but Matthysse just wore him down. Very quick stoppage but i'd say that if there was a worry about Harris' safety then his corner should have stepped in for sure, not the ref.

The weirdest thing was that I didn't see Harris laying down enough leather to close Matthysse' eye up that bad. Anyway, I think Matthysse if matched right could be in a few wars, but aside from that I'd say he'd get comfortably outboxed by someone like Paulie. I'd like to see him in with someone like Maidana or Urango, that could be fun, and I say he'd certainly give Bradley somethin to think about....

This is Vivian Harris' last fight. This stoppage is so bad, that it makes you think there is some type of fraud involved with this ref.

Yeah, I can not think of a worse stoppage that I've seen.

It's not the worst, a bit of an obscure one but does anyone remember Guillermo Jones-Wayne Brathwaite? That stoppage was much worse imo and there are others. It's not fair to Harris at all I admit, but given his track record I can't throw my hands up and complain because you have to include the recent history of Harris in my opinion, I'd just rather see Harris retire.

That was a joke. I thought I might be able to defend the ref before seeing it :-\

Terrible stoppage or not, dude is done. Vivian's own promoters put him in this fight to showcase mattyse. He had little chance of winning soon as he signed to fight. Once again...mr harris thanks for coming.
