Some of Tyson Fury's early stoppages were shocking, there was one against a German guy in a kilt (don't ask) which was basically the guy dropped his hands to protect his balls which Fury had hit twice & the ref stopped it. Interestingly enough a friend of mine was ringside & said ol' Mick was screaming 'just hurry the fuck up & stop it Howard'. Subtlety obviously not his strong suit

    There was a Ricky Burns one against a Ghanaian guy that was a shocker, Burns had been getting a little outboxed by this guy & the first time he caught the guy Ian John-Lewis (the king of bad stoppages, see last prizefighter with him stopping Michael Grant) waved it off with the other guy wondering wtf he was up to.

    I'm not sure what the worst was but the Gavin stoppage rates pretty highly for shit decisions considering he was actually throwing a punch at the time.
    The Gavin stoppage was a shit call Skel for sure.

    Jaz, that stoppage of Grant was pathetic also, it was a bad cut but i've seen worse in 12 round fights. They could have surely done a job on stemming flow in between fights too.....

    One of the worst i've seen lately also was a Joe Murray fight a few months back, can't quite remember who he fought but it was stopped kinda like Mandfredo Calzaghe, just hittin alot of glove....

    English boxing has a reputation of stopping fights early for our fighters.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
