Fights that Continued/Stopped-If You Were The Ref:

[SlimTrae]

As a ref, I think I would've blew it with Gatti-Ward and stopped right around the part where Lamply is pleading with Frank to stop it. I couldn't fathom a need to continue. Boy look at how that turned out! A classic.

I might have stopped Pac/JMM I. That 3rd KD he sure got up gingerly. Way to soft, to think he could contest and turn it around. Thanks to the judge who made the goof and scored it wrong...We got 4 fights. Had he gotten it right, which he admitted he was wrong...we would've been denied those other 3 great fights.

Interesting considering his mistake brought us JMM-Pac 4 times.


I would not have stopped Lennox vs McCall nor Rahman. man gets up, he has the belt and is the HW champ, I woud have at worst...given him a standing 8 afterward, but if I were reffing those fights, it wouldn't have ended right then & there.


I would have allowed one more round for Lennox vs Vitali- It was too clear, these guys were both tired as hell within 6 rounds, Vitali punch output dropped last 2 rounds, while Lennox who threw less, had the same punch ratio. He plopped down on that chair like he was done... I would've allowed the corner to tend to Vitali...then check his cut, bit before hand.


For sure, I would have either DQ'd Floyd Mayweather vs Zab...Not sure of rules, if possible I would've ended it as a Double DQ.
No way can Uncle Rog storm the ring like that. His steps in the ring before bell? Dq. But considering how it went down, double DQ for the nut and rabbit combo


Any fights you may have stopped when it kept on? Or vice versa?

lol... dude, Lennox was spark out on his feet both times. The ref saved him from brain damage against McCall. The Rahman one was kinda iffy, but Lennox was probably gonna get bludgeoned for a few more rounds in any event.

But with Vitali vs Lennox, you must have wanted Vitali to lose an eye man. lol....

Let's just say I warmed up to Lennox...to the point of a wee-bit ...lot a bit biased in favor. Put a mirror to his nose....still breathing? Let em continue!!!

Mercer vs Morrison......oh my God that ref should be arrested

I wouldn't have let Cintron whine his way back into his fight with Sergio Martinez after clearly being counted out like Frank Santore did. The guy lost twice in one fight and still didn't get the 'L'. I remember there was a point in the Jeff Lacy v Epifanio Mendoza where Lacy looked absolutely shot to bits and being hurt to the point of wanting it stopped. Jones Jr v Pazienza should have been stopped before it even started. Maidana v Broner should not have been stopped. I realize it went to a decision but they should have found a way to keep that one going.

Cintron had some weird stoppages, I remember that...but not was weird as his Paul Williams fight-if I remember, it looked like he did a superman dive out the ring.

Funny as hell to me. It just looks like he literally tried to dive between the 2nd and 3rd ropes...he succeeded!

Mercer vs Morrison......oh my God that ref should be arrested

I was going to mention this as one of the worst stoppages I’ve ever seen.

Tommy was out and took free punches From a heavyweight hard hitter.

That was wrong regardless of how much of a scumbag Morrison was..

You haven't forgiven him for Rocky 5 either.

Cintron seemed to always have a knack for the bizarre. Never got that one, it's not like he was fully spun and he even pushed off with his left toes to go all bubbling Superman. He literally jumped out of ring relevance and into a slow career fade away that night.
