ignore that moron nelson that was a completely unneccesary stoppage
the german fella had his hands up and looked completely ready to go only to be stunned when the ref called it off.
2nd time in 3 weeks us fight fans get screwed over!!!
He's Finnish & had the ref let it go on, Asikainen would have finished the round. I've seen him in a good number of fights & I've always been impressed by his recovery. I was amazed he got up from the left hook. He seemed ready to go after the ref counted to 4 & then actually patiently waited. That was a really dodgy stoppage, I'm sick of seeing that in fights in the UK favouring the house fighter.
I remember about a year back Ricky Burns was getting schooled by a Ghanaian fighter, caught him with one good punch & the ref stepped in. At least this wasn't as bad as that.
ridiculous. Remember seeing paul truscott fight a ghanian fella a year or so back for a commonwealth title, commentators were proclaiming truscott as a potential real deal despite the fact in his 13 wins he only managed 1 ko. Suffice to say the ghanian won at the very least 8 of the 12 rounds and ended up getting screwed on a decision. Thank god for john simpson, lol
Really pleased to see chello renda win tonight. The guy is so underrated. Really hoping he gets a crack at murray next up over 12 rounds!!
one dangerous horrible bloke
