Boxers know the dangers waiting for them inside that ring, they are not forced to fight, they choose on their own. Magomed fought in a style people who SAY they are boxing fans like, but people who ARE boxing fans know is a style that gets you where Magomed is at the moment. If anyone is at fault for not stopping the fight it's Magomed's trainer, BUT at the same time, boxers don't pay their trainers to pull the plug on a fight they feel they are in/could win. The promoters are supposed to stop it? How? Why? The doctor was supposed to stop it? Mago wasn't bleeding or cut or showing a ton of signs of distress.

What has happened to Magomed is a shame, but it's happened before and it'll happen again that is just a sad reality of the sport of boxing. Getting punched in the head is dangerous....so don't take too many shots.
Sir, I could not disagree you more! Boxers do know the hazards in the ring, but they also have the expectation that the ref, their corner, and the doctor will protect them from the other fighter and themselves.
You don't seem to care, but I would rather a fight was stopped too soon instead of too late.
It's my belief that everyone setting at ringside failed this fighter, if I'd been there I'd have been yelling at the ref to stop the fight.
Shit man, I even blame the other fighter, do you remember when Ali had Quarry in a bad way on the ropes and was waving the ref in to stop the fight?
When you see a fighter in a bad way, taking loud thumping shots to the head and not throwing much back what are you thinking about? Maybe we should be thinking about how we can stop this from
happening again.
Boxing is a job and boxers should expect cuts, broken bones, bruises, rope burns, and problems from head trauma. Boxers should also expect to be protected from unnecessary head blows by the ref, their corner, and the doctor! Lol You know what I mean.
Sir, you are a hard hearted dude!
