Bad Stoppages.

[erics44]

duuno if it has been mentioned but i watched carson jones v brian rose for the first time the other day

that was hurrendous

i was in barbados when it was on originally

[Bill Paxtom]

Larry Holmes vs. Muhammad Ali

The bout should have been stopped way earlier by Angelo Dundee or the
Nevada State Boxing Commission.

Bad Stoppage in Reverse, as Muhammad Ali was done by Round 8.

http://www.saddoboxing.com/boxingfor...stoppages.html

Lays what out? Someone using conjecture and a clear agenda to make a groundless assertion? Where are all the complaints from Calzaghe's opponents? Ask Woodhall what he thinks? The OP even admits not to having seen Joe pre Lacy, which is about 85/90% of his career.

No question Cal Slappy slapped his way to some early-ass slappages İ mean stoppages bwahaha but 'twas the ref, not he, who done the deed, indeed, he did. Froch,, Hagler, Hearns, Duran, Leonard, prime Roy JJ, hell İ'll go out on a limb and say even Kov and GGG wax his slappy backside.

prime Roy JJ

For sure, he doesn't win 3 rounds vs prime Roy Jones. RJJ would have whipped that ass.

I give Calzaghe respect because he beat everyone put in front of him, but at the end of the day he fought in a weak division. If he had fought in the 168 class of a few years back there's no way he would have been the #1 guy. Ward would have beaten him.

Yes İ forgot Ward. İ respect Calzaghe, he was a superstar and great boxer. Undefeated and, once again, İtalian.

I admitted to having not seen MUCH of Joe pre Lacy, not having not seen anything at all of his career pre-Lacy. I don't see how I had a "clear agenda", seeing as how I blatantly said that I thought he was a great boxer and that I never thought for a second that any of those guys would have beaten him.

I simply saw a compilation on Youtube of a collection of what I thought were bad stoppages and posted it to spark discussion on the topic (hence the "?" in the thread title). Don't see how I'm the bad guy there.

Oh come now, you know you have a clear agenda bro, he can see it so clearly, he sees all our "agendas".

I don't think you are the bad guy but that if you go into a hypothetical situation wanting to prove something then you will find evidence to support it. The Video you posted is complied from that perspective and so of course supports your theory if you look at it that way. I get to some degree why a lot of people don't really get Calzaghe but to just drag up the tired Slappy thing is a bit telling.

You named one fighter? Woodhall? Okay ask Peter Manfredo jr. Not that you know him LOL Youtube his response. Not telling any fibs, but yet another one of my priviliged pilgrimmages to the BHOF, Peter wasn't angry about it, but humorously talked about how bad the stoppage was.
So there : 1-1.

And if fighters not complaining is the apex to determining if a fight was stopped prematurely: Check out docu called Fighting Ali.
Norton didn't complain, and Lyle not only didnt complain I remember his quote.
Lyle: Had it not been for Ali, would I be sitting here talking to you? oh yeah? 'bout what?"

When Frazier lost the rumble in the jungle the post fight he cleary stated "I got no complaints"

Now does that mean he didn't or was just a real trooper in the same way with Joe's oppopnents, not complaining doesnt mean Joe did not have early stoppages-
Not every fighter complains is my point.


But here's my agenda in this clip- Joe is dropped, 2 minutes in this clip, then Byron is dropped, Joe goes on a flurry and sends Byron reeling to the ropes, to which the ref stops. Are U friggin kidding me? Not even a standing 8? Bad stoppage, B.S. stoppage? OK how' bout homecookin' stoppage?

Are you fucking blind?

I mean seriously i know this fight inside out and after JC decks him he hits him about 40-50 times and Mitchell throws ONE punch back then nearly goes over like a tree with his legs clearly gone and smashes backwards into the corner of the ring , Calzaghe is waiting in front of him to do more damage but the ref waves it off.

That's what i call a good and sensible stoppage and exactly what the ref is in there to do.

[TitoFan]

Mitchell should've gotten a standing 8.
The fact that he had dropped Calzaghe earlier in the round cannot be ignored.
Corrales-Castillo, anyone?

But whatever. What about this one?





Geez folks.
If pointing out a Calzaghe fight to say it was a bad stoppage constitutes hatin', there sure as hell are a lot of thin skins around here.

I like how you start off with the 2nd knockdown and not the 1st one- Mitchell's knockdown, why? no need??

he hits him about 40-50 times and Mitchell throws ONE punch back then nearly goes over like a tree with his legs clearly gone and smashes backwards into the corner of the ring
Like a tree? Well trees either go over or they don't. Mitchell didn't. But let me try your spin For the 1st knockdown check this out bro.
1:20 in notice how Joe hugs him like a prom queen hugs her king .
1:22 in notice how Mitchell lands such thudding, thunderific, big cycloptic-fuckin balls o'mongus body shots! And see how Joe dropped to the canvas like a hoe will drop her panties to a $50 dollar bill.
That right hand sent Calzaghe the other way of the ref, But...no need to stop, give Cal a chance right?
1:41 the fights picks up..

, Calzaghe is waiting in front of him to do more damage but the ref waves it off.
Yeah, what I typed as well. but let me add this:
1:40-1:50 am I so blind I cant see they are both trading?
1:52 Byron is down
Joe's next punch is at 2:07 now here is the MOST IMPORTANT THING MY BLIND ASS couldn't see
2:27 RIGHT THERE...LOOK AT IT...Joe looks at the ref. Why? Don't think he's egging the ref to stop it? Out of the 20 or so thrown, I guess I'm too blind to see he didn't land them all.

That's what i call a good and sensible stoppage and exactly what the ref is in there to do.

2:32 in Byron throws 2 lazy shots that don't hit the target- BUT he throws.
2:40 in Interesting that if you look at the moment of the stoppage- the ref AINT EVEN LOOKING AT Byron. His eyes are on the canvas shaking his head every way but in the face of Byron.
So from 1:52 in 2nd round when Byron goes down- up till 2:07 when Joe throws the next punch.
Again:
From 2:07 till 2:40 in the same round Joe was down..
It was just too much.

33seconds worth of an ass-erific, hellatious calslapified of a beatdown, that I was too fucking blind to see. No need to let him fall, no need for a standing 8.


I will have to watch some of your posts more closely as it relates to fights refereed by Steve Smoger and Frank Cappacino. There were fights they allowed fighters every chance to redeem and when they stopped fights it was always because they 1. stopped 2. looked into the eyes of the fighter they choose to waive off if @ that time they hadn't hit the canvas.
