0:28 * Blood is trickling from the cut over Leonard's eye; it has to be impairing his vision somewhat and it's definitely bothering him if the amount of blinking he's doing is any indication. And it looks like . . . yes . . . Referee Yeats is notifying the timekeeper to stop the clock. He wants the doctor at ringside to take a look at Leonard's facial wound. 8:0
0:28 * The doctor is peering at the wound and he's shrugged his shoulders and he's shaking his head - is that a good thing or bad? Well, it's good from Leonard's perspective and the cheer that arises from the crowd tells us all we need to know: there's going to be more fisticuffs in just a moment. Obviously, the damage isn't that bad and Leonard and Roy Jones Jr await the signal from the referee to commence firing. The fight resumes here in Round 10. 8:0

0:36 There's no ignoring the cut on Ray Leonard's left eyelid as the blood continues to drip down his face as the wound grows worse and worse as it takes more damage. 10:0
0:36 * The referee appears to be jockeying for position; he's moving more than the fighters. Apparently, he wants to get a better look at the cut above Leonard's eye. Now, he just steps in and stops the action. Yeats is escorting Leonard over to the ringside doctor to get an opinion on the severity of the cut. 10:0
0:41 * Referee Yeats is calling a halt to this fight. He's leading Leonard to the corner and calling for the ring doctor. The ring doctor is studying the cut... Leonard's corner is pleading its case.* They want Leonard to be allowed to at least finish the round. The Referee is waving it off. It's over! The doctor is not going to let it continue. The winner by TKO due to the severity of the cuts - Jones Jr! 10:0
Fight Result

1:26 * As the two fighters back away a step, you can see blood on the chest and shoulder of Calzaghe but it's not his.

1:46 The flow of blood from Hearns's nose has started again. 9:7
1:46 * The two fighters are circling one another. Calzaghe looks like he's trying to target the bleeding that has become much more noticeable on the face of Hearns. The referee has also taken a sudden interest in the claret flowing down the face of Hearns and we're going to get a temporary - at least we hope it will be - halt in the action. The referee has called time and wants the doc at ringside to take a close look at Hearns's injury. Fortunately, none of the bleeding is above the fighter's eyes or matters would be much more serious. 9:7
1:46 * The doctor is peering at the wound and he's shrugged his shoulders and he's shaking his head - is that a good thing or bad? Well, it's good from Hearns's perspective and the cheer that arises from the crowd tells us all we need to know: there's going to be more fisticuffs in just a moment. Obviously, the damage isn't that bad and Hearns and Calzaghe await the signal from the referee to commence firing. The fight resumes here in Round 5. 9:7

2:16 And Calzaghe's in big trouble now! 9:13

2:29 That was a spirited exchange that saw both men score well, though Calzaghe had the edge. 12:15
2:43 Calzaghe fails to connect with that punch. He pushed it out there instead of cutting loose with it. 12:15
2:50 Hearns lands a vicious cross! 12:19
2:50 That punch may have stunned Calzaghe momentarily. 12:19
2:50 * Thomas Hearns's last punch snapped back the head of Calzaghe. And it looks like it has also drawn blood! 12:20
2:50 The cut isn't bleeding that heavily right now but it is in a bad location, over his right eyebrow. 12:20
3:00 Calzaghe works free! The fighters move to ring center. 12:20
3:00 The close of the round brings some hearty applause from those in attendance. 12:22

0:39 Calzaghe with a lead left to the head. 7:0
0:52 Calzaghe goes to the body with a three punch salvo. 9:0
1:05 Calzaghe lets his hands go again and gets in several scoring blows. 11:0
1:17 Hearns lets his hands go, but Calzaghe answers right back. 13:2
1:26 Calzaghe scores with several light punches to the head. 15:2
1:26 And now Hearns is bleeding again from that last punch as his previous cut has been reopened. 15:2
1:26 Blood streams down the face of Hearns as the gash on the bridge of his nose has, apparently, been reopened. 15:2
1:26 * As the two fighters back away a step, you can see blood on the chest and shoulder of Calzaghe but it's not his. Hearns is bleeding a bit more heavily now and even though the damage isn't over an eye, apparently the referee wants a stop in the action to have Hearns examined by the ringside doctor. 15:2
1:31 * Referee Langos stops this fight. He guides Hearns to the corner, motioning for the ring doctor. The ring doctor is examining the cut... Hearns's corner is pleading its case with Langos.* The doctor is shaking his head. The fight is over as Langos calls for the bell! Calzaghe is the winner by TKO as the doctor will not let Hearns continue! 15:2
Fight Result
Here's Joe Antonacci with the call...

Joe Calzaghe!

Re: CRW Season Week 8 fights 13-18(World Titles)
Calzaghe had some level of revenge, stopping Hearns via cuts. We really wanted the KO, but will take the win.
Jirov/Gomez was a good read. The point deduction killed Jirov at the end. Can't complain though, it looked like a toss up going to the cards.

I am really upset that my boy Ray Leonard was beating Roy Jones Jr. but the ref stopped the fight on a cut. The cut wasn't even that bad. I mean he could have still finished and won the fight dammit
on the other hand at least Holyfield survived a fight that I thought he might lose halfway through it

Leonard gave RJJ a real scare there, there'll be a rematch in the future to erase any doubtBoxBully wrote:I am really upset that my boy Ray Leonard was beating Roy Jones Jr. but the ref stopped the fight on a cut.
