0:36 * Chavez's pawing at his eye and there may be some blood trickling into that eye from the cut above it. The referee must have noticed because we have a stop in the action as Cobian motions toward the ringside physician. They're going to take a close look at the cut. 0:6
0:36 * The referee won't stop the fight on his own if the reason for the stoppage directly has to do with a cut or swelling; he'll always consult the ringside doctor.

Round 9
Time Commentary Points
0:00 Chavez was a little slow getting off his stool this round. 0:0
0:06 Pat Burns was extremely upbeat during the break with Chavez providing some solid encouragement. 0:0
0:06 Chavez's corner has done a great job on the cut outside the right eyebrow. They've got the bleeding stopped, at least for now. 0:0
0:06 The swelling on the face of Chavez is noticeable, even at a distance. Although his corner men were applying cold compresses and trying to work the swelling away from his eyes, Julio Cesar Chavez still has distension. 0:0
0:06 McCallum's corner is an experienced crew but the swelling he's suffered looks almost as bad as it did before the minute break. 0:0
0:06 Upstairs and downstairs! McCallum lands two quick blows and then moves away from Chavez's counters. 0:2
0:21 McCallum's hands are free inside as he lands an uppercut on Chavez's beltline. 0:4
0:36 Chavez tries a hook but McCallum blocks it and then he scores with a hook of his own! 0:6
0:36 McCallum last connect snapped back the head of Chavez. And it looks like it has reopened Chavez's cut. 0:6
0:36 Now the bleeding from the gash outside Chavez's right eye has begun to flow again. 0:6
0:36 * Chavez's pawing at his eye and there may be some blood trickling into that eye from the cut above it. The referee must have noticed because we have a stop in the action as Cobian motions toward the ringside physician. They're going to take a close look at the cut. 0:6
0:36 * The referee won't stop the fight on his own if the reason for the stoppage directly has to do with a cut or swelling; he'll always consult the ringside doctor. And it looks like, in this case, we're going to see some more boxing because the physician has given his okay to let the fight continue. Both fighters are assuming their positions and the timer has restarted here in Round 9 as the fighters approach one another. 0:6
0:41 The swelling under Chavez's eyes is increasing, making it tougher and tougher for him to see punches coming. 0:6
0:53 Chavez can't score with short uppercut inside. McCallum got his gloves in front of the punch. 0:6
0:56 * McCallum is being lectured for using his head to butt Chavez. Cobian is letting the judges know but as far as we're concerned he blew that call. McCallum and his corner people can't believe the call. 0:8
0:56 McCallum tries to double up on the hook to the body and at least one gets through. 0:8
01:07 Chavez retreats into his own corner... 0:8
01:07 McCallum lands the jab but comes up short with a second one right behind it. 0:10
01:12 Chavez's eyes are becoming more swollen and it's going to need controlled in order for Chavez to see properly out of them. 0:10
01:20 McCallum has Chavez trapped in the upper neutral corner... 0:10
01:24 McCallum doubled up on the hook. Did you see the water fly off Chavez's head? 0:14
01:24 Chavez takes a step back, obviously hurt! 0:14

01:52 Chavez gives a nice head feint and then lands a hook to the head of Mike McCallum. 4:14
01:57 The swelling under McCallum's right eye is growing to a point where the eye could end up shut if his corner can't reduce or at least control it. 4:14
02:05 Both fighters move back to ring center. 4:14
02:09 Chavez plods forward. 4:14
02:19 McCallum picks off the jab thrown by Chavez. 4:14
02:26 McCallum connects with stiff left hook to the body. 4:17
02:43 McCallum slides into the corner... 4:17

Time Commentary Points
0:00 Chavez and McCallum square off as the bell sounds to start the action for Round 10. 0:0
0:06 As round 10 begins, blood is still visible on the face of Chavez; obviously, his corner did its best but it wasn't good enough to completely close the cut outside the right eyebrow. 0:0
0:06 If the swelling was lessened by Julio Cesar Chavez's corner, it wasn't reduced enough to make a big difference. It's going to be a factor in this fight if it continues to worsen. 0:0
0:06 A minute wasn't enough to eliminate or even significantly reduce McCallum's swelling. They'll have to keep a close watch on it and make sure McCallum's vision doesn't become a major problem over the next few rounds. 0:0
0:08 Chavez eats a jab from McCallum 0:2
0:08 McCallum momentarily stuns Chavez with that last shot and it looks like McCallum is going to receive some added benefit from the punch because the blood is flowing much more freely from Chavez's cut. 0:2
0:08 Now the bleeding from the gash outside Chavez's right eyebrow is flowing even more as the wound has widened. 0:2
0:08 * The fighters move away from each other, creating a bit of distance between them. Now the referee has called timeout, halting the action. He's leading Chavez to the ringside physician. The cut over Chavez's eye seems to be the primary cause for concern. 0:2
0:13 * Cobian has halted the the bout as the ringside physician has climbed onto the apron. He is taking a real close look at Chavez's cut as his corner looks on.* The doctor is shaking his head. The fight is over as Cobian calls for the bell! McCallum is the winner by TKO as the doctor will not let Chavez continue! 0:2
Fight Result
