Re-watched Marquez-Vazquez 2 again

[The Rookie Fan]

I think it was a good stoppage and I'll tell you why. When they showed the replay there was a punch just before the stoppage that we could not see cuz of the angle. I could see Vazquez's back and over his sholder you can see Marquez's head bounce back and then he starts drifting backwards, thats when the ref walked in. I think he saw something we didn't.

Fenster cc to you just for remember the ref of a fight that happened 13 years ago .Good grief .

I think it could have been called an early stoppage but at the same time I dont think rafel would have mmade it out of the round.

Im just glad Isreal won so we can see it again. Could this have been fight of the year

Thanks.

But I can't take any credit for actually knowing that, I read it about 5 minutes before opening this thread.

The only person I know for certain who would have known something as anoraky as that is the great man Britkid.

Not the best stoppage, not the worst. Marquez was in serious trouble. The safety of a boxer should always be the #1 priority. Could it have been a bit to fast....maybe. But he was backed up on the ropes and taking punishment...so better safe than sorry. They will fight a third time...so it's all good.

I'll say i don't see how anyone that thought this fight was stopped early could say that the end of calzaghe/manfredo wasn't ridiculous, I mean you kinda saw how the vazquez-marquez fight seemed to be going but marquez has come back before and he was definatly throwing i hate to see any big fight stopped this way...had it been friday night fights or something it probably wouldn't bug me as much.
