Leigh Wood


Few complaints that it was the end of round and Warrington could have been given the minute to try and recover (don't think we would have regardless)

Not sure ref even realised. I didn't realise myself


I'm pretty sure the rule is can you continue to fight after being knocked down, not can you continue to fight if we let you sit on a stool for a minute, with an ice pack to wake you up.

Plenty of times I've seen fighters fall back into corner at the end of round having been knocked down though

It was a weird one

I’m sure the referee knew.
For Warrington, the light was on, but nobody was in. Dangerous for a boxer.

Wood is something else though. Hope he gets to fulfil his WFCG dream.
 
got to hand it to wood. no quit in him.

he was seen as an unlikely hero. michael conlon was claiming wood was the easiest route to becoming world champion.

fast forward 18 months. wood is 2 time world champion and becoming a legend.

"he could be your dad....he could be your daddd...jimmy saville....he could be your dad"
 
been avoiding the wood news cos my stream was awful and so recorded it. "walked into one" as we used to say, oops. "lucky" others would say.. got away with it either way :) Woods left jab just isnt strong enough imo. In fact 'mentally' I feel Id still have him if he came up to lightweight haha

Have to agree, whilst at the same time, it did feel 'slightly' hasty, if hed got up and wobbled on 5 he'd have prob have got the extra seconds
