0:20 * It looks like the ringside physician is asking Viruet to stop the fight so he can examine Green's cut.

Green's cuts are just too severe and O'Brien is the winner by TKO! 2:0
Fight Result
Joe Antonacci has the call...
Ladies and Gentlemen! The winner by technical knockout at the 0:21 mark in Round 6 is...
Philadelphia Jack O'Brien!

The man is a human wrecking ball and and would put the 'B' in I.B.O. 'B' for ruthless blasting, relentless bashing and a good ol' fashioned butt-whupping.....I am sure you will agree.

I will match Irish Tommy up against Maske again later in the seson, but in the meantime, I will take it on the chin, and Burnsy will learn from this (the hard way).
