McCloskey Corley

[mpurintun]

It's fornicating boxing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[crusader]

McCloskey really showed his level in there tonight.

Nowhere near world class.

No kidding. Corley had lost 8 of his last ten, with many of his conquerors being inexperienced prospects.

[milpool]

Fair play to McCloskey, he isn't slating the referee over the stoppage.

[Final round]

McCloskey is cheated not defeated for a second time.

piffle he was gettiing a pasting and looked shit for the majority of the fight. Paul's legs did a dance one too many times..he called the refs bluff too.

[bfchunk]

Bad stoppage handled terribly by IJL. That said, McCloskey was hurt (despite what he says) and I think Corley would have stopped him seconds later.

[mpurintun]

Recently unsatisfactory outcomes - Khan/McKloskey, Crolla/Matthews, Enzo/McPhillbin. fornicating puke. fornicating pussies.

He wasnt stopped ealier, he was looking straight at him after the punch, and history (prescott) showed he can bounce back from a punch. Ref needs to do some god damn research before the fight. Careers are at stake.

I saw highlights of his last fight on Kotv, the commentators said the lad he beat was a promising up and comer. Corley went down but other than that he looked quite good from what they showed of it.

He's not a bad fighter, but his recent fights suggest that he is beatable well below the world class level.

He should not have been stopped, he was cheated.

Looking at someone hardly suggests that a fighter isn't badly hurt. McCloksey has never been hurt like that before, so I don't think the Prescott fight should be read into too much. I do agree that it was an early stoppage though.

Noted, but at that point he was hurt. If Corley followed straight up the stoppage would have been legitimate.

Oh well. Off to a friend for the PPV mismatches tonight. Hope everybody enjoys.

The Provodnikov fight was MUCH closer than the cards show. A split IN CANADA to Andre Gorges, a closer than the cards show loss to Marcos Rene Maidana IN Argentina...losses to Dulorme (a star in the making) and Matthyse are nothign to be ashamed by.

I've not seen the fight with Serhiy Fedchenko though it was in Russia so...

Yes. I get it. Wasnt disagreeing with you bro, But the fornicating ref didn't let it be legit. No reason to stop fight. Let him at least get knocked down.

Sorry he asked to get stopped by doing his jellylegs dance after getting his head rotated 360 by a right hook.
No cheating required put down your pitchforks and torches

Bit of a duffer then tonight on the ref's part ?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didnt he have jelly legs earlier in the fight and it continued? In fact, he started to come back. Also, my bet was the over 9.5 so I won, but it was disappointing to me.

[mpurintun]

Ridiculous stoppage. No doubt about it.

He did it a couple of times, the last time was for real imo glad you won though.

Andre Gorges is mediocre and according to reports I've come across a draw would've been the fairest result; Dulorme is still completely unproven; Fedchenko won fairly according to reports I read; and Matthyse dropped him 8 times.

Chop Chop can still fight, but he is clearly not a world class fighter anymore, so this fight says a lot about McCloskey's level.

You agree with the stoppage?

The BBBofC are not going to do anything about this. They are a disgrace and they are an embarrassment to British boxing.

[Cas]

Well, well, well. McCloskey was found out to be a British level fighter tonight.

Corley made him look amateurish and practically schooled him in every department... In a way I'm actually glad the fight was stopped. I could see possibly a home town cooking brewing. I think Corley would have stopped him anyway. McCloskey was eating leather for most part of the fight and looked to be busted up, out on his feet at times.

Corley is simply amazing for his age. He is in tremendous shape and still has some of those slick skills.

At least we don't need to hear about McCloskey anymore eh? Nothing against the guy, but the hype surrounding him was beginning to get a tad over the top. World class? No chance. He was schooled by a shot Corley, and I struggled to give him three rounds on my card.

Bad stoppage? Maybe. I think it may have been a blessing in disguise. McCloskey was getting beat up and clouted with just about every power shot Corley threw.

Yes I think he was well within his rights to stop it. Paul's senses 'looked' scrambled. If it was kidology he did it too convincingly 'cos he looked fcked.
Laughing hard at the excuse to have a pop at the board

[ShadrachSimmo]

The stoppage was quite poor but not as poor as mcCloskeys defence. Chop chop was brought in as another opponent after Diaz what would have happened had he stepped up in class had he won?
