He was intelligently defending himself, blocking punches, dodging punches, he just didn't punch back. But he was most certainly defending himself.

I guarantee if the roles were reversed and Peter was throwing a bunch of wild punches and Joe was dodging and blocking but not punching back, if the ref stopped it there would be outrage. People would say "Joe is the champ and he was waiting for Peter to tire". But since it was Manfredo they say "Peter was to inexperienced and should have known better". Freakin nuts. Manfredo is a solid experienced fighter and he probably would have lost but it was still the most bogus stoppage I have ever seen.

No way the blame goes to anyone but that crackhead ref.
CC thats what ive been saying since saturday
yeah man i agree with that aswell. the stopage was blatantly premature and i would be goin mad if i was manfredo. but i still think if the fight wasnt stopped there it was only going to happen a little later on, perhaps even in the same round.
