Did it come down to a purse bid? Or is the Area Champion looking at this as a soft option?

Anyone can get stopped at any time, even in a 4 rounder. You’ve not given a great deal of information to be fair. For example, the record of the lad who lost and his opponent who beat him, form, activity log etc

No.
You shouldnt be rewarded after losing. Title fights should always contain guys coming off wins.
Only exception is a rematch of a close fight...

While its not the best I think generally the level of area title fights has improved over the last few years (in the midlands at least).

I remember when I was first going to small hall shows around 07/08/09 there was times you'd see prospects fighting journeymen for area titles.

If they fighters are within the best 2/3 options of fighters within that area shouldn't mater.

So you wouldn't allow someone coming off a British title loss fight for an Area title?

No always as simple to say.

Depends on too many things to clearly say yes or no. From the fighters to the nature of the loss to the level of the title etc etc etc.

Area title is scheduled fight. His record stands 6-2 was stopped last fight by kid 3-2 no ko's in last round of a 4 rounder. His opponent was first positive record his faced does he deserve an area title shot.

Again depends on too many other variables to just say, was it a cut, a clean KO, was he fighting above his natural weight etc etc etc.

He was outweighed by 3 lbs. Which has happened don't a few times on his record. Dont know the circumstances to the stoppage just it was stopped with 7 seconds left.
