    Fight was stopped on the consequences of an accidental headbutt, the rules state that makes it a No Contest and that's what it should be changed to.


    If not, has the fight been turned into a NC because of the steroid test yet?:yep

    Rahman QUIT, because he knew he was gonna get knocked out again. That glass-jawed mediocrity got exactly the result he deserved.

    They've both been declared too God damned old to fight and rendered into glue to be used as part of the ring for tonight's fight.

    Wasn't it late in the fight? I didn't see it since at this point I don't give a **** about either guy but normally the rules are that if a fight is stopped after 4 rounds they go to the scorecards. If a fighter quits, he loses by TKO

    It was after the 3rd round.

    That's the thing.

    Everyone is being cool in saying "Rahman quit". Well, he was fighting in Toney's hometown, the doctor asking him how his eye was after the accidental headbutt, and he simply said he couldn't see, which was quite evident because Toney all of a sudden started landing right hands after the cut, while doing **** all before it.

    If it went on for just one more round (which pretty much is a given because of Toney's iron jaw), it would've gone to the scorecards sooner or later, which would mean Rahman would be ****ed for having to fight with an injury from an accidental headbutt.

    Agreed. It is obvious and I don't see how people can't understand how it works.

    It should have been a no contest - but it wasn't and if it hasn't been overturned yet - it never will be.
