Froch Vs Abraham - Ward Vs Bika etc STICKY.

The was a fucking terrible stoppage.

Really ? he took about 30 answered punches without throwing back, he was gone and offered nothing in return.

He was on his feet, wasn't badly hurt, and he deserved the chance to come back. I was cheering for Marquez, but given the type of fight it was I feel that Katsidis deserved more time.

I thought is was not a good stoppage. Kas.. just got his legs back and started being aggressive. He was beat to shit but he recovered.

That's exactly how I feel. He might well have gotten dropped/stopped/ktfo, but he deserved the opportunity to continue.

I thought it was a bit premature...but the writing was on the wall.

Great Fight!

Froch deserves props, he shut down AA. Ward is soo dirty and holds too much he's worse than the Klit bros. I think Litzau deserved the win in his fight, and the stoppage was bad in the JMM fight, at least let him get knocked down, he had just thrown punches right before. Bayless stops fights too fast for my tastes, he jumps in and starts shaking his head no, waving his hands.

I have very little interest in seeing Pacquiao - Marquez III.

How did the Ward - Bika fight play out?

I'll watch it again tomorrow but from what i remember JMM landed 6 punch combo off the ropes, Michael Katsidis backed up. JMM was then landing at will Michael Katsidis was just backing up, Michael Katsidis didn't recover he didn't throw a punch for almost 50 seconds, while he was getting hit with every but the kitchen sink.

He was going to be stopped shortly after, i don't see no reason why he should take more punishment. If Michael Katsidis would of thrown back it wouldn't of been stopped, but he threw nothing back and he's head was getting snapped back good call IMO.

It wasn't premature imo, like ICB said there were so many unanswered punches from Kats. The safety of the fighter comes first and foremost. This is still a sport, not a death match. Bayless did the correct thing.

[CFH]

Merchant has no business asking that last question IMO. Totally classless.

Not only did he ask it, he cut the guy off when he was in the middle of what he was going to say. Imo that's worse

I disagree. This fight was a war from the outset and Katsidis deserved the opportunity to continue. I don't want to see anyone hurt in the ring, but Katsidis is a Gatti-type fighter who gets hurt, recovers, and comes back. He didn't get that opportunity in this fight.

[armin]

Awesome fight as someone else said though somewhat deceptively one sided but lived up to my hopes. As for the stopage it looked like he had just weathered the storm and actually just landed a punch himself a second prior, but can't argue to much with it because he did take a bunch of unanswered power shots.

[TigerFan]

Damn Larry made him cry at the end.
