anyone watching Brian Rose v Carson Jones?

[Master]

It was a strange shot that hurt Rose. There was talk of a rematch but it could the same way Price v Thompson.

agreed it was strange, but it hurt him and it made a loud sound that first shot on the ear, really loud, right at the end of the punch. Then he proceeded to eat about 10 more shots on the button, and started a lil' Zab judah mini-dance there at the end on his heels, good stoppage, he had no idea where he was, and didnt know how to clinch or tie up his opponent , it was the perfect 15 seconds left in the round for another 5, 6 power shots could have seriously injured Mr. Rose, good stoppage, getting hurt with a shot is one thing, but wobbling like that back on his heels, totally off-kilter at the waist and hips, like a rag-doll, well, thats just Danger Zone City and it was a good stoppage.

The Ian John Lewis has a lot of previous



Go to 6.45 where he stops Enzo Macarenelli when he fought Ovell McKenzie. Ian John Lewis should not be in Boxing, what makes it worse, is that he's not even sure himself that he should stop it. Just look at this joker, the way he jumps in, but he's not sure.

I'd have more respect for him, if he just went in and was decisive, and sure of himself and waved the fight off.

He's terrible ref

His fight was far more ridiculous to stop than the Rose fight. Rose was out on his feet and taking shot after shot.

After Rose was hurt Jones landed about 2 from 10 punches. Roses hands were high. Just a shocking call

Refs have hard job. We know that. I don't want to go back forty years ago and see George Foreman Vs Joe Frazier fights. Fights were the ref takes way too long to end it. Foreman was bouncing Joe round the ring, lifting him up in the air with a punch, giving him an uppercut that would have felled a grizzly bear or even worse back in Rocky Marciano's or Joe Louis's day, the fighter near enough had to be killed before a ref would stop it.

Seriously look at pretty much any Mariano or Louis TKO and you'll see how reluctant refs were to stop fights in those days. No-one wasnt to go back to that.

But the problem with this (And it's becoming a growing problem in the UK) is that boxing is facing stern competition from other sources MMA, UFC and in way it's like, they're trying to put a 120 mph speed limit on Indy 500 or in Forumla One. Yes it woud make it a lot safer, but they would not be spectacles they are.

It's the brutality of boxing which is what makes it one the oldest and still most popular sports there is, take the brutality away and you have no sport.
