Rose bares a slight resemblance to Sergio Martinez. Only noticed it now after watching the interview on Sky.

A sort of beaten up version.

Were the official scorecards ever shown at the time of stoppage?

Anyone else think the stoppage was a bit premature? Alcine took a good shot and was buzzed, but I didn't see him in any sort of trouble when it was waived off.

Yeah, I thought it was a premature stoppage too. Rose did throw a flurry of 8-10 punches but most of them caught Alcine's gloves. According to the commentators Rose was ahead on the judges scorecards. I had it very close going into the last and at the time I felt it could go either way if it went the distance.

Despite that being a very good win for Rose (on paper), I'm still not sold on him.

Quick stoppage.

Some close rounds, but I'm surprised he was up that much. As I recall, the commentators had it by a point for Rose after 10.

I was in the dressing room after when it was said by an official
