1:48 * Blood is trickling from the cut over McGovern'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.

1:52 * Referee Christodoulou is calling a halt to this fight. He's leading McGovern to the corner and calling for the ring doctor. The ring doctor is studying the cut...
