Rahman is shot to pieces, his timing was way way off, and his balance is clearly gone, he couldn't pull the trigger on any openings he did get, and lacked the reflexes to parry the jab or slip it. Terrible to watch someone that far gone in the ring with someone as big and powerful as Klit.
Buncey is on the rant, but it's not McGirt's fault, he was brought in at late notice to train a guy who clearly didn't have anything to offer, I fail to see how McGirt is at fault, it wouldn't have mattered if it was Angelo Dundee, Whitey Bimstein and Ray Arcel in the corner, Rock was completely gone in there. The only thing he could have done is pulled him out of there after the knockdown, which he probably should have done, it was clear from Rahman's body language he didn't want to be in there, and from his total lack of reaction to anything being said to him in the corner.

It was the 7th
...and my mate is broke.
Check if he got under 6.5??? That still pays 'cause it was 6 complete rounds and 44 seconds :??
Rahman was a joke in there last night - I can't recall him throwing a right hand. I also agreed with the stoppage because there's no point in letting a fighter fight if he's disinterested and taking shots at will - those jabs did hurt Rahman a lot.
I don't know if this has been mentioned already, so apologies if it has.
David Haye made an appearance live on German TV next to Vitali last night after the fight. The sound wasn't on in the bar where I watched it so I don't know what was being said but there was some half friendly banter going on between the two. I think it's great as well that Haye is gettin himself known amongst the German audience and trying to rack up interest in the fight.
He was wearing some ridiculous cowboy hat though, but nevermind
