0:34 Corbett is bleeding again from that horrible gash on his left eyelid. The blood is just flowing down his face. 2:2

0:34 * Corbett seems to be having some difficulty seeing. It's not that he's bleeding all that badly but the location of the cut - over the eye - makes it a bit more serious. And talk about timing, the referee has stepped in and momentarily stopped the fight. He's looking at the cut above Corbett's eye and is now leading him toward the ringside physician. 2:2
0:38 * Referee Curtin stops this fight. * This one is over! Corbett is unable to continue due to the severity of the cut over his eye. Riddick Bowe gets the TKO victory! 2:2

0:13 * Oh boy, the blood is just spurting out of a cut high on Wills's forehead. The two fighters clashed heads in Round 8 and that must have caused the gash. It was accidental, no question.

Points will be tallied as of the last full stanza, because we're having more than 4 rounds in the book! This shortened bout is in the hands of the officials and we'll await their decision. 3:0

0:13 * Oh boy, the blood is just spurting out of a cut high on Wills's forehead. The two fighters clashed heads in Round 8 and that must have caused the gash. It was accidental, no question.

Points will be tallied as of the last full stanza, because we're having more than 4 rounds in the book! This shortened bout is in the hands of the officials and we'll await their decision. 3:0
