Media Tom Aspinall TKO Curtis Blaydes GIFS

looking back it seems like blaydes was out on his feet. his head just bobbles when he lands on the floor. and turning away from an opponent with ur butt on the floor aint the move.
 
Thanks for the GIFs. Stoppage doesn't look early from that view point lol
I don't think it was that early either.

When Curtis went down, Tom tagged him with 2 hard rights under Curtis's armpit and Curtis went flat belly-down. It's a bad look, especially with Tom keeping Curtis from getting up and continuing to spam hooks to the head.

Even if you think it was a bit early, that fight was over. Ref saved Curtis from taking damage that wouldn't have changed the outcome.

Ok, looking at this I feel better about the stoppage. Blaydes wasnt getting too hurt yet...but he also wasnt doing shit to defend and taking repeated shots.
 
Should’ve pulled guard instead of flat turtle. Follow up shots were not so damaging but Curtis lame defense. Hometown fighter going to get a favorable call on that scenario. Ref within his judgment to call it. Would have liked a bit more for good measure but Ref felt it was enough.
 
Kaz, I know you this it but you're a legend!
