BT Sport Boxing Launch Night - Lomachenko v Sosa, Smith v Williams, Flanagan v Petrov

[Batman]

Am I right in saying that only the ref can call the doctor to look at an injury?

If so then questions need to be asked of the ref who seemed to be pretty happy to allow a fighter to continue with half of his eyelid hanging off.

I think I had Williams up by 3 or 4 rounds at the time of the stoppage, those final rounds would have been really interesting because Williams looked gassed in the last round and Smith was finally getting into the fight

Aren't the Dr's supposed to observe/ examine the fighters between rounds? Then they can make an accurate assessment to the ref.

Trainer could have and should have called the doctor in.

I've just introduced my dad to Loma, the fight has just been on BoxNation he's not seen him before.

He was rather impressed by him

I was watching Donaire the other day, he was going to be a great fighter not just a regular champion.

[Batman]

Donaire was great, he's still fighting ain't he?

Yes he is but he was not as great as he should have been.
