Should have been wearing the McGregor (punching bag) monikor.

It’s one thing to square up and leave your helmet on, but there was no opportunity here with them being tied up from the get-go.

McGinn kept whaling him over and over. He is tough though.

That was the case here.

Newbury did not drop any bombs after that and got his @ss kicked. As for the half shield, McGinn did not have time to remove it because of the sucker punch. Sorry, but if someone punches me in the face when I’m not looking, I am not taking the time to remove my helmet before I beat the sh!t out of you.

While watching, i thought ” this has to be a flyers telecast” low and behold it was. You’d think newbury was knocked out 4 times. They also didnt show the first part of the fight where newbury dropped some bombs.
I dont care for guys fighting with a half shield on, should remove that or shake it off during the fight.

I was under the impression you get 2 mins for fighting with a helmet on that has a shield, did they get away from that rule? Shouldnt the penalties be a wash?

I noticed it too. However, the way the fight broke out, it wasn’t his fault. He had no opportunity to remove his helmet.

Additionally, if you WHIP the other guy’s ass, well, it doesn’t matter what you have on your head now does it?

a lot less honorable !

Glad to see he’s still such a tough little motherf***er.
