There are far too many of these swollen eye stoppages. Are guys intentionally being dicks and going for the swollen-eye win?If so, bloody stop that ya weirdos! Jeez.
I'm still not sure what BJs deal is on this site yet. Sometimes he is a monster, and sometimes he loses to everyone. I guess its kinda realistic that way. It;s all about motivation. Guess BJs corner just need to hand out more BJs and get BJ in the mood for some beatdowns. But on the giving end this time, not receiving.
