1:39 There's blood streaming down the face of Arguello as the gash on his forehead is worsening. Even if the cut itself isn't a danger to the fighter's well-being, the fight could be stopped if Arguello can't see to protect himself due to the blood running into his eyes. 12:13
1:39 * Blood is trickling from the cut over Arguello'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.

1:39 * 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.
