I thought it was a bad stoppage, and if Miragliotta was going to let the Kimbo fight go the way he did, then he needs to show some consistency here. Although I will admit that this stoppage is more justified than the Kimbo travesty of a fight/refereeing match.

Bottom line to Vera - getting in a fetal position and holding your hands to your face may not be perceived by some as intelligently defending yourself.

I personally don't think he was in any real danger - the shots that were landing weren't very powerful IMO, and he never seemed close to being unconscious. He was taking the shots. However, he's just as much to blame as Miragliotta.
