Marco Antonio Rubio vs. Anthony Ivory correction

The time of the TKO is listed as 0:20 of the first round. This is incorrect.

I'm watching the fight now, and Ivory was knocked down at the 1:28 mark of the round. He got up and then the referee took him over to the ringside doctor at the 1:45 mark of the round. After consulting with the doctor, the fight was waved off.

Unfortunately, I can't speak Spanish and it's unclear if the referee called time or not. So, here are the two possible scenarios:

(1) The referee called time and the bout was called off at 1:45 of the first round.

(2) The referee didn't call time, and when the doctor was finished the referee waved off the fight at 2:41 of the first round.

Now, these are just my estimations, I could be off by a second or so. But either way, the official time of the bout is certainly not 0:20 into the first round.

Hope this helps to clarify.

With out knowing anything about it, it could sound like it was stopped with 20 secs to go in the round.

You're probably right, so the time should be 2:40.
