0:59 * 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.

2:06 * Battling Nelson 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 Nelson's eye and is now leading him toward the ringside physician. 5:4
2:10 * The Referee has stopped the fight and leads Nelson to the ringside doctor. The doctor is up on the apron and doing a thorough examination of Battling Nelson's cut.* And on the advice of the doctor McTavish is stopping the fight! Nelson's cuts are just too severe and Ross is the winner by TKO! 5:4
Fight Result

0:59 * 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.

Both fighters are assuming their positions and the timer has restarted here in Round 9 as the fighters approach one another. 2:4

2:06 Nelson has emerged bloodied, as the gash outside his right eyebrow has, apparently, reopened. 5:4
2:06 * Battling Nelson 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 Nelson's eye and is now leading him toward the ringside physician. 5:4
2:10 * The Referee has stopped the fight and leads Nelson to the ringside doctor. The doctor is up on the apron and doing a thorough examination of Battling Nelson's cut.* And on the advice of the doctor McTavish is stopping the fight! Nelson's cuts are just too severe and Ross is the winner by TKO! 5:4
Fight Result
And here with the call is Jimmy Lennon
