01:43 Muhammad's got blood streaming into his left eye again as the gash above it has reopened here in round 6. 4:13
01:43 * Muhammad seems to be having some difficulty seeing. It's not that he's bleeding all that badly but the location of the cut - over the eye - makes it a bit more serious. And talk about timing, the referee has stepped in and momentarily stopped the fight. He's looking at the cut above Eddie Mustafa Muhammad's eye and is now leading him toward the ringside physician. 4:13
01:47 * Oh boy, the blood is just spurting out of a cut high on Muhammad's forehead. The two fighters clashed heads in Round 2 and that must have caused the gash. It was accidental, no question. Podgorski is stopping the action. He's motioning for the ring doctor to come look at the cut. Muhammad is pawing at the blood. This one's going to be over. Yes, that's it. There are more than 4 rounds in the book, so that means we'll be going to the scorecards. Points will be tallied as of the last completed round. We'll have to await the judges decision in this abbreviated bout. 4:13

01:43 Muhammad's got blood streaming into his left eye again as the gash above it has reopened here in round 6. 4:13
01:43 * Muhammad seems to be having some difficulty seeing. It's not that he's bleeding all that badly but the location of the cut - over the eye - makes it a bit more serious. And talk about timing, the referee has stepped in and momentarily stopped the fight. He's looking at the cut above Eddie Mustafa Muhammad's eye and is now leading him toward the ringside physician. 4:13
01:47 * Oh boy, the blood is just spurting out of a cut high on Muhammad's forehead. The two fighters clashed heads in Round 2 and that must have caused the gash. It was accidental, no question. Podgorski is stopping the action. He's motioning for the ring doctor to come look at the cut. Muhammad is pawing at the blood. This one's going to be over. Yes, that's it. There are more than 4 rounds in the book, so that means we'll be going to the scorecards. Points will be tallied as of the last completed round. We'll have to await the judges decision in this abbreviated bout. 4:13
