Two terribly late stoppages:Opponents of Tua and Lemieux

David Lemieux has power and God knoes so does Tua. There was no need to let their oppoents continue in their recent fights after they had been decked the first time. Judge for yourself. Scary stuff.

The Lemieux fight seem fair, his opponent got floored and shook his head as to signal he made an error.. then he got up not wobbly and wanted to come forward to fight, got knocked down again then the fight was stop. The Tua fight i felt bad for his opponent the fight should have been stop after the 2nd knockdown. Boxing is a crazy sport though just imagine if Marquez would have been stop after his 3rd knockdown with pacquiao.. we would of never seen the epic comeback draw.

I didn't see anything wrong with the Lemieux fight either.

Tua vid is gone again! I still ain't seen it but I can't find it anywhere.

I thought the stoppage on the first fight was fair he was not badly hurt and deserved a chance to fight on.

Well you wouldnt have any Matthew Saad Mohammed type comebacks if all refs were so quick to stop fights.....I'll take Steve Smoger type refs over Richard Steele type refs any day.

Lemieux is regarded as one of our best hope here in Quebec, hammer in both fists, seem to have a good stamina and his coach is possibly one of the finest we have in Canada. HArd to know if he'll live up to the expectations but for the moment, it is possible to believe it.
