Thanks for the kind words by the way, that pronunciation of McNally as McInally was truly inexcusable!
But Just to fill you in - and everyone else interested ... after 11 rounds of the main event, 1 judge had Dodson up 3 rounds, another by 2 and the third had it level.
So by my calculations had the ref let it go to the distance allowing for the knockdown and a 10-8 Quigley round Dodson would've been up by 1 judge, Quigley up by one and one would've been level, Hence a majority Draw. I think I was in a minority of 1 at the time who thought the ref should've given Dodson 1 more chance to see the fight out given it's importance, but I bow to the superior knowledge of Bunce and Richie that he had no choice but to stop the fight.
Germany next Saturday for Povetkin, and then the Bradley - Holt unification in Canada. Get the beers in, Another long and cracking night of boxing. See you then

Second knockdown would have made it a 10-7 round had Dodson clung on
