    It was a good stoppage. He would not have been able to defend himself if the ref let it go on he could have been seriously hurt.

    Bad stoppage if you ask me

    Im all for refs protecting a fighter from getting badly hurt, but this still boxing and a certain amount of punishment has to be sacrificed in order for it not to lose its entertainment value.

    No way Nicky Cook would of won that fight from there on in had the ref of allowed him to continue. But if your up at 9 and hold your gloves up i see no reason why the fight should be stopped


    Where would the history of the sport today have been had the ref of stopped buster douglas who got up at a very late 9 and looked completely out of it but went on to KO Mike Tyson 2 rounds later

    So good stoppage no?

    The way Cook went over particularly from the second one was quite frightening actually, he literally wilted.

    Watched this a few times.Difficult to call. Maybe we should change the quistion.

    A fight should be stopped when a fighter is deemed "unable to protect himself"

    Did cook look unable to protect himself when he got up?

    He looked ok to continue to me.And this is hardly one of them Cotto VS Gomes match-ups.I'd give the champ a proper chance to defend his title

    Not to be trite, but better early than late.

    If your down for two 9 counts in a row,you are unable to protect yourself
