I think you stop it when they are taking a beating for a beatings sake, if a points win is impossible and they are not going to get the ko then the corner should pull them out, im not saying as soon as victory is out of reach they should stop the fight but when the eye closed up the corner shold have stopped and thought about how much more he needed to take.

I wanna see blood and snot as much as the next person but I want to see it in a competitive fight.
It's not so much about seeing Blood and Snot, the thing is when you hit Groves, he tends to rock a bit , and it gives an impression you can KO him. It happened a few times last night.
I'm a big Groves fan and I don't think he's so much chinny as he just looks unsteady when he's hit. I don't think he's as hurt as he looks, and going back to Froch 1 and Howard Foster, that's what cost him the stoppage.
In reality he was punching back and was no more tired than Froch, he just looks fucked.
So what I'm saying is that the ref maybe thought he could wobble a "perceived" gassing, chinny Groves.
