At last!! People who know what they're taking about telling it how it was.

[Batman]

Let what go? Ignorance?

No, being wise after the event.

Plenty in the crowd said it should have been stopped earlier , thousands didn't say that but why look at both sides of the argument huh Master ?

And guess who was right?

Those in attendance and know what they are looking at or the people at home whove never taken a punch in their lives?

Wait a minute, I'm one of those who was at home and have never took a punch in my life...am I not entitled to an opinion? Does that mean I don't have a clue what I'm talking about?

Well fuck me I might have to take up tiddlywinks or something, I never knew that boxing was such an exclusive sport.

I've watched hundreds of hours of boxing, I've studied fighters and closely followed their career but you think that just because someone has never got in the ring themselves they have no knowledge of the sport, that is quite frankly a ridiculous statement.

I've never played top flight football but I know what the offside rule is, I've never rode a horse but I can still pick a bet, I've never played snooker at the crucible but I know how many points are needed to win a frame and can tell a good shot when I see one.

Wipe those tears batman, im not belittling anyone just pointing out the obvious that yeah, many sofa sports fans and keyboard warriors may think the fight was quite right to be left to carry on but the opinion of every person interviewed ringside (bar his own team and the ref), mostly people who had had an involvement in the sport was that it should have been stopped earlier.

Who was right batman?

Your welcome to an opinion as everyone is just be prepared for it to be wrong.

You may well like to have opinions on football but the object of that game is not to punch the opponent in the head and render them unconscious. Some times its best to listen to the professionals opinions.

[Batman]

No tears here friend, I just think the whole 'never been in the ring, no knowledge ' is annoying

I actually thought the fight should have been stopped, I wouldn't question anyone who thinks differently though

You have no idea about all the other posters and what their involvement in boxing is. Just because you assume something does not make it so. There are many here involved in boxing at all levels and connected in many ways that you have no idea of. So your opinion is just that, an opinion, no more or less worthy than that of anyone else. Who are these professionals opinions we should be listening to ? Just those supporting your argument ? Surely you don't class yourself as a pro ? Should we listen to JR who wishes that Blackwell makes "a quick recovery and a speedy return 2 the ring" . What a stupid thing to say.

Lets hope Blackwell gets through this relatively unscathed and with his faculties and abilities in tact, but his time in the ring has gone. He is obviously a brave fighter and that will stand him in good stead in the days, months and years ahead.

[Dia bando]

My son has boxed from a early age I have trained him and spared with him, I have been hit to the head
a few time causing my leg's to do the hoke e coke e, he's a big lad and can punch I was hit relativity light.
and he was playing with me.
Eubank and Blackwell were not taking it easy on each other, they were trying to hurt each out and that
is boxing lads it's a hurt game this sport is extremely hard and unforgiving.
When we want blood sometimes a price has to be paid it can be a high price, Nick Blackwell paid a high
price lads, but remember nobody forced them to fight they fight of there own free will, boxing will never
be totally safe lads.!
Sad facts being punched to the head is not good for you, lets just wish Nick makes a swift recovery.

The question about who has boxed has been asked on here before and very few have. The ones arguing with me havent. They are entitled to an opinion but the opinion that the fight was fine to let carry on to the stage it did is obviously wrong! Some think its fine to see a fighters head get jolted over and ober with no hope of winning.

[Silkeyjoe]

Isn't it funny , and by the way I wish Nick a full recovery , however Joshua KOS brutally Whyte , but its regarded by some as just a British standard fighter.
However Eubank Jr has now failed to win by brutal KO in 2 back to back british standard fights , however he is world class ?
Nothing like double standards.

Nicely put Al. Whats Ross' response?

No response from what I've seen. Reason? He hasn't got a response. He's happy to talk shit about all sorts of other things he knows nothing about but chooses to gloss over and ignore when he doesn't
have an answer.

[Primo Carnera]

I would like to ask a question to all those people who have laid blame for Saturday night on the trainer, promoter, referee etc.
After the fight was stopped, and Blackwell was stood talking to Eubank Sr., how many of you thought "he's going to be in trouble here, he's going to end up in Hospital in a coma?"
Yeah, thought as much. At times like this everyone brings up the McLennan tragedy.
It is believed that the Blow that did the damage in that fight was as early as the 2nd or 3rd round, yet he went on for a few rounds more.
The ref and trainer are not doctors and don't have a scanner with them. They can't say "oh wait , that's the blow, better stop the fight!"
Still , easier to sit in your armchair and slag people off isn't it? That'll fix everything.

[ross]

You make out like he wasnt getting hit repeatedly. It was a joke. There was a massive gulf in class and skills and looked exactly like the OSullivan "fight" bar the corner having any sense.

So what's your answer to the previous question? Oh, I forgot, you're not very good at answering questions.

You want a response to that shit?

Who had Whyte faced? He hadnt fought anybody relevant.

Blackwell had beaten Ryder, took Saunders the distance, gave a good acount of himself as a complete novice against Murray.

He was a known quantity, had done 12 rounds and been in title fights and had won and defended a title!!! Pushed Saunders a world champ who would have you believe that Blackwell was going to do Eubank. As it happens Eubank dealt with him far easier than anyone.

You lot make me laugh! I thought the difference was that obvious it wouldnt need any pointing out and insulting your inteligence

[Master]

You have reminded me how tough Blackwell is, remember against Ryder he was losing the fight and being out classed? Blackwell has been in some very hard fights. His come from behind victories show he would have wanted to carry on.

[ross]

Shall I now do a Primon impression? Ok...

So wheres your response Primo? Havent got one because you are all full of shit
