It was a good stoppage. You can't fight with blood trickling straight into your eye. That's a recipe for brain damage right there.

what a load of nonsense. Plus the blood was not going in his eye

Oh yes it was. It was going in his eye and the first thing you learn at Medical school is to preserve life - not prolong a boxing match.

Khan-Bradley will definitely be a great "clash" if you know what I mean

It was during, before and after Charlie..... He was seething like Barry - but he was dissapointed.

I've seen guys with worse cuts allowed to fight on. Give the guy a couple rounds, instruct him to look to land a haymaker, if he doesnt succeed then pull him out.

It's not being wise after the fact, it could have turned out to be a fantastic fight but it still wouldn't have been a PPV worthy fight for my money; for that both fighters need to bring prestige.

I believe McCloskey yelled "bullshit" a couple times

Correct

Was that before or after the fight was called?

Why would he be yelling bullshit before the fight was called?

Not from what I saw.

What I saw was McCloskey getting rocked earlier in the round and then calmly talking to the ref before it was waved off and then there was a bit of protest.

I've downed a few though, so that may have been just me seeing things.

My point was that it's easy to protest after the fact.

Of course, but you may be talking about cuts where the blood is not going directly into the eye.

If you were concerned about McCloskey's health, can I suggest you have not watched many boxing matches?

Even last week Morales boxed 11 rounds with a closed eye. If you were the ref Marciano would've lost 10 fights.

I can only assume you're biased, drunk, or not an experienced boxing fan

Why not give McCloskey another round to see if the blood would even impact his performance? Look at what Morales did with one eye.

Khan said Dudey wanted to quit and told the ref he cudnt continue.

Not biased, I wanted the best man to win.

Can't drink anymore coz my liver is goosed.

Been watching boxing since the rumble in the jungle.

Next insult.

I'd agree.

All I saw was head shakes while he was being questioned by the doc.

Barrera was allowed to fight on with a worse cut.

Khan full of shit like I doing it for fans!

Diddy drop a clanger? Of course he diddy did.

Did any1 else see Khan put on a boxing clinic tonight? Oscar must have had a few drinks.

Only so they could take it to the scorecards

In reality it's down to the ref or doctor. Maybe you could let him go on, but just imagine trying to conentrate with something in your eye. Then imagine a guy punching you while you blink. Good stoppage.

john rawling was commentating for al-jareeza on my stream!

Nice unbiased comments from Steve Collins!

Sod it, if McCloskey had won a couple of rounds and hurt Khan you could say so but Khan was on top, having one of his best rounds and had won five rounds!
