Just curious lol. I can't imagine if some people blitzed outta the stadium the minute they saw the towel get tossed in to avoid traffic. How about anyone that turned off the fight as soon as that happened? I read someone said he thought the fight was ended by the corner and not a KO. I would be pissed if I left the arena early lol. Gotta give Arthur Merchante Jr. props. He did some badass reffing last night. Let's not forget about the mouthpiece wash either. :alcoholic :boxing:
Yeah I was there too, people were leaving and I was ready to leave and than I heard them ask to clear the ring. I actually thought that maybe his woman threw the towel in.
I swear this is the only sport where I consistently see things I've never seen before in all the fights I've ever seen.
And we better get some more fights at Yankee stadium because that was one hell of a good time.
Boxing is the ever evolving controversial war machine.

I was there live in person.There was too much confusion as to what happened.The minute that towel was thrown everyone pretty much jetted out the arena,only to come back running to theyre seats.There was a standing ovation when the fight continued.Alot of us cotto fans were on the edge of seats cuz we knew it would be just a matter of time.Mercante to me,did the right thing.This fight was too historical.Not to mention his father hosted the last fight in the yankee stadium.Huge props to foreman,such class and heart.
Yea and I liked how he gave a little tribute to his dad and Miguel sr. before the opening bell. Why would people jet out of the place though. I always stick around to hear interviews and all that.
