are you're trying to say i'm mad or something? well, i'm not.

i have no problem with the stoppage. i guess i'm just used to seeing refs giving dan some leeway when he get the beats, even if it's that bad.
no not mad just demonic, i think when u require a ref to make concessions to particular fighters based on a history of fighter x having a quick recovery /solid chin, it can not only fall into bias but its unsafe.

If you want to talk about a ref leaving it a little during a title/no 1 contender fight? cool,But to let a fighter get the beats cuz of his history of toughness is the kind of mindset thats going to lead to fighters having premature dementia and depression

I don't think he was on it at that time.

I love Andy but he is close to getting that flat top.

vitor has been on trt for years now

the only difference was that the fight was at 185, last night vitor was fighting at 205 and looking like a monster

plus styles make fights, anderson is a counter puncher

all these guys vitor has been knocking out have given him no fear about wilding out. go watch that replay of that fight vs anderson, he was very cautious for a reason

He wasn't on it in a known manner for that fight. The commission in Vegas won't give him an exemption now and they wouldn't have done it then.

Both men are two different fighters now. Vitor would put Andy to sleep if he goes out there clowning.

That's part of the reason him KO'ing Hendo was so :dwillhuh: to me, the bright lights he usually folds under were on and Vitor seemed to have turned a corner, TRT can't help you with the mental game. Even in his slow plodding late years Hendo is good at wearing on people when he gets ahold of them. I figured of anyone could weather the Vitor blitz then wear him down it'd be Dan.
