Stoppage looked early, but it wasn’t. She was saved from another flooring. Even the corner had the towel ready.

Better to take one too few than one too many

It isn’t the refs job to decide to stop it because she might get caught. He has to assess if she can carry on...she was more then capable and he had no reason to call that.


That was a joke of a stoppage.

No, the refs job is to protect the fighters from serious damage. If they feel the fight is only going one way and the boxer could take too much punishment, they can stop it.

But she was absolutely fine to carry on. She wasnt stumbling, she was clearly speaking and could defend herself. He can call it if she isnt in a state to continue or in danger of getting badly hurt...she wasnt. She wasnt bleeding and was clearly aware of what was going on.

That's a poor poor stoppage.

If that happens in this fight theres uproar.

I thought it was a bit premature also. However her corner were waving the towel around so they clearly thought it needed to be stopped. Arguably the bell saved her in round 1 and I saw nothing from Namus that suggested she could get back in the fight. As you say lets hope we don't have any controversy in this one, if it ever gets started!
