0:15 The blood is coming from somewhere on the inside of Conn's right eyebrow and it's following a path downward alongside his nose and onto his upper lip. It appears to be a fairly bad gash. 4:0
0:15 Even a small cut this early in the fight can become a problem in later rounds. 4:0
0:15 * Conn's pawing at his eye and there may be some blood trickling into that eye from the cut above it. The referee must have noticed because we have a stop in the action as Garza motions toward the ringside physician. They're going to take a close look at the cut. 4:0
0:15 * 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 Conn'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 Conn and Gomez await the signal from the referee to commence firing. The fight resumes here in Round 2. 4:0

0:50 A fighter hates to see their own blood anytime, especially this early in the fight. 7:0
0:50 * Blood is trickling from the cut over Conn'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 Garza is notifying the timekeeper to stop the clock. He wants the doctor at ringside to take a look at Conn's facial wound. 7:0
0:50 * 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 Garza is indicating exactly that - the bout is going to continue; and both fighters are getting ready to start punching again. 7:0

Round 3
Time Commentary Points
0:00 Round 3 begins as the bell sounds. 0:0
0:06 Conn's corner gave his cut inside the right eyebrow priority during the minute off and they've done an excellent job of closing the wounds. 0:0
0:08 Conn gets in close and comes straight up to the chin of Gomez with an uppercut. 0:2
0:08 * Conn's last punch snapped back the head of Wilfredo Gomez. And it looks like it has also drawn blood! 0:4
0:08 The blood running into the right eye of Gomez is coming from a gash right on the eyebrow of the fighter. his corner had better do some quick work on that cut, or it's going to have a negative impact on their fighter. 0:4
0:08 * Gomez 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 Gomez's eye and is now leading him toward the ringside physician. 0:4
0:08 * 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. And it looks like, in this case, we're going to see some more boxing because the physician has given his okay to let the fight continue. Both fighters are assuming their positions and the timer has restarted here in Round 3 as the fighters approach one another. 0:4
0:22 Wilfredo Gomez is clinching... Conn is trying to free his gloves... They are under Wilfredo Gomez's arms... 0:4

0:55 Conn has really been letting his hands go. And now it appears as if Wilfredo Gomez's cut is bleeding even worse than before. 0:6
0:55 Gomez is having a lot of trouble seeing out of his eye now, as blood streams into it from the gash on his right eyebrow. The bleeding has gotten progressively worse and it could threaten the outcome of the fight. 0:6
0:55 * Garza is taking a close look at the blood trickling down Gomez's face; and now he steps in and stops the contest. Apparently, he wants the doctor to take a look at the damage done to Gomez's face, especially the cut above the eye. 0:6
01:00 * Garza steps in and stops the fight. * This one is over! Gomez is unable to continue due to the severity of the cut over his eye. Conn gets the TKO victory! 0:6
