Originally posted by Check View PostThere is no agenda. Robert Byrd would of stopped a classic like Castillo/Corrales because he had a hunch that Corrales was done after two spitting of the mouth pieces. No ref should ever intervene in a fight just because the hunch is a guy that gets knocked out is completely done. Jacobs wasn't done because he was screaming at the count of 4. Finished fighters don't yell well before the 10 count. That ref took Jacobs chance away, over a hunch.
That's not a bad stoppage anyway you paint the picture.

Pirog had an American style.
Jacobs fought like a Brit. There was a bit of Calzaghe about him when he missed all six punches of a pitty-pat combo in round 3.
