    I dunno, Calzaghe seemed pretty chilled out away from the ring...

    I don't think that the Frazier HOlmes fight should have been stopped to be honest. Frazier was far from gone, even if he was way overmatched.

    Holmes could've made it far worse if he felt like it

    Agreed, but if he didn't want to hurt Marvis, he should just never signed to fight him. I would have felt cheated if I paid to see this match

    I think Marvis was about to turn it around but the ref prevented what could have been an amazing comeback. It would have similar to Pacquiao-Marquez 1.

    But a cynic could rightly say you're a sucker for paying to see that match in the first place

    "No, it was definitely what Cdogg said.

    Holmes had known Marvis since he was a young kid from Joe bringing him to the gym, and didn't wanna seriously hurt the overmatched scrub. He wanted Lane to step in, but Lane took AWHILE to do so, so Larry pounded the shit outta Marvis about 10 seconds longer than he wanted to."

    Yes. Holmes wanted the fight stopped.
