1:16 * The two fighters are circling one another. Jones Jr looks like he's trying to target the bleeding that has become much more noticeable on the face of Vanderpool. The referee has also taken a sudden interest in the claret flowing down the face of Vanderpool and we're going to get a temporary - at least we hope it will be - halt in the action.

Fortunately, none of the bleeding is above the fighter's eyes or matters would be much more serious. 18:0
1:16 * 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.

0:49 * What was once just a trickle of blood is much more noticeable now as Vanderpool's face looks like it lost a fight with a razor blade. It's a good thing that the bleeding isn't over an eye or this fight would be in jeopardy. And it still may be, as Referee Florian has now halted the contest and is leading Vanderpool toward the ring doctor's position to get a second opinion on the severity of the bleeding. 16:0
0:54 * The Referee has stopped this fight. * It's all over, the cut over Vanderpool's eye is in terrible shape and he will not be able to continue! The winner by TKO Jones Jr! 16:0

1:16 * The two fighters are circling one another. Jones Jr looks like he's trying to target the bleeding that has become much more noticeable on the face of Vanderpool. The referee has also taken a sudden interest in the claret flowing down the face of Vanderpool and we're going to get a temporary - at least we hope it will be - halt in the action.

1:16 * 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.

0:49 * What was once just a trickle of blood is much more noticeable now as Vanderpool's face looks like it lost a fight with a razor blade. It's a good thing that the bleeding isn't over an eye or this fight would be in jeopardy. And it still may be, as Referee Florian has now halted the contest and is leading Vanderpool toward the ring doctor's position to get a second opinion on the severity of the bleeding. 16:0
0:54 * The Referee has stopped this fight. * It's all over, the cut over Vanderpool's eye is in terrible shape and he will not be able to continue! The winner by TKO Jones Jr! 16:0

Re: CRW Season Week 20 fights 1-6
Gomez put on a clinic against one of the hardest punchers in the Cruiserweight division and got a rare KO win, I was a little worried going into this one so this result is great for F.O.L. Inc.
