When should a fighter be pulled out ?

[Silkeyjoe]

Barker was bang on when he pulled purdy out. He was getting hit and not throwing back.


In my opinion, even if the fighter has 95% stamina left, if he is getting beaten down without returns should be pulled.

this is key and so is knowing your fighter, reading the fight etc. IF your guy is well behind on the cards and shows zero sign of winning you could within your rights pull the guy out to save his brain for another day.

If he's getting beat down BUT has the power to land a one punch ko you're more likely to let it continue a little while longer.

Then no journey men should be allowed fight. Ogogos fight at the weekend should have been stopped after the 1st by this logic, it's bullshit. Purdy was weight drained and had no chance of winnin, everyone knew that, particularly after the 1st round.

Fighters should only be pulled out if they are clearly hurt, Lebedevs for example was a clear example, Purdys was not.

nope, plenty of journeymen (I've seen) tend to have decent defences so they don't take much damage, that way, as long as they don't get stopped and put on suspension they can fight again and make a decent living

My point, Purdy was not going to get damaged against a light punching, one handed Alexander

Well Purdy , was in a nutshell hopeless it was embarrassing to watch, hands up marching forward
getting hit,! way out of his depth out classed out boxed.
Yes he had his shot, his stock has gone up as what a punch bag.
It was as competitive , as a Nun V a alcoholic in a drinking competition.
