    Bute vs Andrade could have been stopped still.... sure he did get up after 8-9 seconds, but as the rule stands... you cannot be saved by the bell. Once Bute was up the ref should have asked if he was alright and asked him to come forward, to see if he was still ok to fight, which CLEARLY he was not. I am not being biased here, I like Bute and I was rooting for him last night and also on that night vs Andrade... But clearly he was badly hurt and it should have stopped. Props to Bute for getting up within 10 seconds when being that badly hurt. The guy had no clue where he was.

    By not being saved by the bell means the fighter has to beat the ten count,even if the round is over.The fighter does not need to be fit to continue if the fight is over.
