Wrong.!

I was watching the card from Moscow, thinking this is going to be a load of crap, HOW WRONG
I WAS,! Lebadev V Jones was one of the BEST FIGHTS I'VE SEEN IN YEARS, my word toe to toe
thunderous punches landed by both,Jones for a old man had a chin of iron.!
Lebedev was hitting him spot on that chin,Jones was like a rock he could not be moved, Lebadev
had a horrific injury,Jones could not miss him, WHAT A Fight edge of the seat stuff it was a pity
there had to be a loser.
Before someone pipes up I no, Lebadev should have been pulled out with that injury, and hope
there is not serous damage to Lebedevs eye.
Great fight wonderful stuff. ;)

I did not watch it I will check it out now that you have said that. was it that good?

I had a lights are on but no one is home moment.;D forgive me I'm at a funny age:la:

We can debate that after Lebadves eye closed the fight, should have been Stopped,! his corner ,
the referee, yes it was a truly a terrible injury.
But he was the home town fighter, and no way in hell was the corner or referee going to pull
Lebadev out.!
Fight like theses are few and far between, this is why I love boxing what gets you with boxing
you don't really no what your going to get.!
Myself this fight was going to be a stinker in my mind, but how wrong I was you can on guess
but, what a scrap.:)

I was able to watch the first 8 rounds when I came home for lunch and watched the rest later and you are right. That puppy is a Foty candidate. Dam can Jones take a shot. The Vargas eye was bad and so was Wolacks but this was something else.

Hell that's a swelling from his eye to his ear,! nasty in the light of day, I hope Ledadevs eye sight is
OK, I bet Jones jaw must be a sore as a boil, considering how much he was hit on it.!

Great fight but it was a disgrace, there's no way that fight should of continued for that long. Lebedev had to go down on one knee and basically stop the fight himself, because no one else would do him a favour.

Of course it was a disgrace, his corner the referee the Doctor, but Lebedev could have just sat on
his stool, to game for his own good.! But what a performance by Jones,! 40 plus a truly marvelous fighter.

They said ledbadev was winning on the cards so why would they want to stop it so late?

Because Lebedev went down on one knee and had nothing left, he basically had to force the stoppage himself. Because his corner, ref, doctor, wouldn't do him a favour and stop the fight. I enjoyed the fight but couldn't anyone give this guy a break the fight went on about 4 rounds too many.

Most fighters have too much pride for there own good, to quit on there stool. Which is why the corner have to do there job which they didn't but neither did the ref or the doctor.

Guillermo Jones is a 40 plus fighter alright....about 40 plus years older than me, and I'm older than just about everybody. I can't believe he won that fight- I figured that he was just the next stop on Ledbedev's effort to beat up all the senior citizens in the world.

My wife has been to boxing with me, watched our son box etc, but she was disgusted watching
this fight, here words what's going look at his eye, I had to agree it's not Rocky but real life.
But it was a hell of a fight.

I heard Jones refused to take the post fight drug test. Is this true? Cant believe he took so many shots and barely affected him. I was certain he would collapse around 7/8 after taking so much shots

He took the post fight piss test.

Saw the fight now and it was a exciting fight. Jones has not fought in 18 months and puts that performance was amazing. Jones has a great chin and did some great work with jab, body shots and upper cuts.

Ledbedev has balls of steel but where was his protection. Really disapointed in Kostzy he should have stopped it.

Kostzy in your corner, you would think looking at that eye he would NO that could be a career ending
injury Lebadev had.! Referee only looked once, the Doctor carry on the best and the worst in this
fight,on view two warriors in the ring and a shocking disregard for a fighters health.:eek:

That's the reason it wasn't stopped. His corner men were Kostya Tszyu and Alexander Povetkin. A former fighter and a current fighter. All 3 share the same mentality. So it was never brought up. The fact that Lebedev was still fighting and winning rounds is the reason why it wasn't even a consideration. The corner didn't do anything wrong by letting the fight continue. It was a championship fight. What the corner did wrong was not having a legitimate cut-man. Povetkin was the cut man. His experience comes from getting worked on. Not working on somebody. He didn't even have an end-swell. Just a bag of ice. It's no wonder the eye blew up the way it did. I don't know if something happened or what. But going into a championship fight without a proper cut-man is just fucking moronic. Tszyu, Lebedev and Povetkin have all been champions. They should of fucking known better. They all share blame

I only saw the tenth round and some highlights thus far. By the tenth it looked like Jones had major fatigue. Looked like his arms were getting too heavy to lift.

Jones boxed really well at first but tired later in the fight. I was impressed with Jones jab, right hand and body work, but ledbedev fought back valiantly. Superb match.

Kostya stayed on his stool against hatton.... And he didnt have injuries to that magnitude, the corner was braver than the fighter a crap advert for boxing being safe.

Common sense went out the window, did it not your sight is worth more than money or a belt,!
you can be a home town fighter, but that was a bad disregard for a fighters health, by fellow
professionals, that showed very little professionalism.
Yes he may have won, but at what price blind in one eye.:mad:
