Yeah, a bit premature. I think a few Aussies will be wild about the stoppage. I thought it was premature, but Rocky did look awfully hammered, and hadn't thrown a meaningful punch for quite a while. Still, I would've liked to see the ref see if Rocky could finish the round.
Good stoppage by the Ref. I think Rocky can improve from this loss and come back to be a world champion some day. He is still getting better with every fight. Just needs to work on his defense more (easier said than done, being matched with possibly the greatest counter puncher in the sport)
Still was an enjoyable fight, and you have to expect losses when taking on the best in the world... I still rate rocky better than Mundine, as Rocky fights the best

I rate Rocky our best current fighter. Losing to the best doesn't drop you down the rankings.imo
