Yes but as I said you will have to ask the board why they chose not to do anything at the time especially as they were fully aware of the interview etc
Sorry, I misunderstood.

Like I said before, I am sure they will say that as nobody (ie BBBofC member) made a written complaint then they couldn’t investigate.
Written complaints were made at the time
So what happened then - were they just ignored?

Please don’t say only the Board can answer that!

For that fighter to say the fight will be stopped in the 5th suggests the ref would need to be in on it as well wouldn’t it?

No different than a fighter carrying someone for longer than he needs to get some rnds under the belt , ,

Remember, Moore in four and Cooper in five, it is a very grey area.

Agreed. This is a non-story for anybody who isn't a degenerate gambler.

For sure. Although that is not guided by shady bookie types. Also it sometimes goes longer because the main protagonist wants a show for his fans- like Wifebeater Jr saying he kept it going with the non boxer to make it more believable :roll:

Looking at the stoppage in isolation it looks early but I still don't think Groenwald is a very believable person in all this.
