In my opinion the Ref should have stopped it. He was in trouble several times & he was never going to win the fight, he was behind on points and never looked like knocking Eubank out.
Its better to take one less punch and be annoyed at being stopped than take one too many.
Part of the problem is Blackwell was too brave and Eubank doesnt hit hard enough. Eubank is quick and lands an acumulation of punches which has in this case done damage but he doesnt hit hard enough to knock someone clean out.
Sometimes its better to just get sparked out than take an accumulation of punches round after round and slightly recover between them accumulation of punches allowing you to take more punishment
hopefully blackwell is ok & feel a bit sorry for both guys. Eubank doesnt get in the ring to hurt him & give his opponent lasting damage. he isnt his enemy he gets in as a sport and to entertain & has faced some undeserved below the belt questioning from some reporters.
