In Klitschko's favor, the bleeding isn't flowing into either of his eyes. 8:29
2:49 * The ringside physician is making a thorough examination of the cut, after having cleared away some of the blood. He's dabbing at the wound again and from the way all three participants, doctor, ref and fighter, are nodding their heads, it looks like this contest is going to get back underway. Referee Florian is indicating exactly that - the bout is going to continue; and both fighters are getting ready to start punching again. 8:29
