1:59 It's early in the fight and DeJesus knows his cut could develop in a real problem in subsequent rounds. 6:5
1:59 * DeJesus 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 DeJesus's eye and is now leading him toward the ringside physician. 6:5
1:59 * 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. 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 3 as the fighters approach one another. 6:5
