    Wow!! Anybody see that caveman fight on ShoBox?


    Ref should have let Garcia get up at the end of the round..............but whatever.

    I agree, as soon as I saw how close the ref got to Garcia while he was on the canvas, it was obvious he wasn't going to let the guy get up and continue. What a war.

    Garcia's nose was smashed to a pulp but it looked like he was going to try getting up at 5 and he would have had a full minute to recover.

    Probably a good stoppage but the bloodthirsty part of me wanted to see if Garcia could put Abregu on queer street again.

    It was like Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots in there. :lol:

    It was a surprise to see that Irving guy floor Abregu the first time, let alone both times. I remember seeing that guy fight Julio Garcia on FSN years ago. I definitely wanted to see that fight go further, if anything just to see if he could have gotten up and able to continue, but yeah, I was hoping for both guys to land right hands at the same time and neither get up, just to see the refs reaction.

    I wanted to see it go on. That was a great fight in terms of entertainment. I was locked in, lots of ebbs and flows.
