It was heartbreaking and the end of an era.
It could be considered lucky that Douglas was allowed to continue. Watch the bottom left on busters side the difference between the guy in the white gloves and the refs count.

I know all about the mixed up count!!!!! Crazy times. Sad day. Did you ever see the Chavez vs Taylor fight?

as a former boxer, what a fucking fiasco and travesty that was last night. And I was saying to myself prior to the main event "man that ref really blew that, thank god we have Tony Weeks here for this one, he's gotta be my favorite most professional ref him and Big John"

I think Tony missed some low blows and two fights were stopped that should have continued imo. The winners likely still would have won but let the fighters make those decisions. Nobody wants a ref in football to peel points of the board or an umpire to take the bat from the guys hands or a ref to take the fight out of a guy who is still standing there.

Feel bad for Tony, he's still one of my favorite refs, but boxing looked bad last night.

Here's some fun afterwards

I find boxing boring to watch after watching mma for the last 10 years. The refs are involved as much as the fighters. It didn't look like he got hit low as much as they made it out to be, unless the navel is considered a low blow. Boxing is about done that ppv sold 160,000 which is sad. If mayweather finds a way to lose his fight that'll be the nail in the coffin.

wow. i remember hague. so sad to hear. even sadder to think it may have been avoidable, too much brain injury in a short period

...But in the past two years, he was just 1-4, and all four losses have come by knockout...

anyone see the o/u for how many rounds mayweather/mcgregor will go? i saw 9.5, and the under was at -170. looks like vegas expects mayweather to out-punch mcgregor by almost 2:1, and end the fight early. both of these loud mouths deserve eachother. whoever loses will have their legacy dented

Whats the money line? What do you guys think it will close at? I could be wrong but wasn't it Mayweather -2100 last week?
