    Whatever. Stephan Larouche said in an interview yesterday that the ref considered Magee's health/safety after the liver shots and, subsequently, a crushing uppercut. Magee "carried a lot of pain over the rounds" apparently.

    No doubt. Im not disputing any of that, but do feel the ref should have given a count, as said Bute was in a much worse way against Andrade when they first fought

    Fair enough. Magee is tougher than I thought he was gonna be BTW. I could see more pain on Brinkley's face after similar shots.
