The dilemma of reffing in Boxing.
While watching the undercard to Thurman vs Porter I realized something. One fighter (Molina) was close to getting knocked out but still conscious; the referee comes in and stops the fight to save the fighter from a definite knockdown, and possible K.O. Boxing needs to find it’s fit. Either make this an entertainment sport or a points sport. I think entertainment sport is the only way to go. We need the K.O’s we need the blood and guts. It’s very hypocritical to have referees that break as soon as a fighter initiates a clinch (Kenny Bayless),then berate another referee that stops a fighter from being K.O’d at the end of a fight.
