      The older Klitchco fought on against Lennox Lewis with a lot worse cut than that, and they let it go, and it was the same doctor!!!!

      The Rock was looking for a way out after Toney buzzed him! IMO

        he didnt have to say it, both of Rahman's eyes were clearly open and there wasnt a drop of blood. Rahman's heart obviously pumps kool-aid, most fighters want to fight, he was practically begging the doctor to stop a fight and then he gets mad that he has to take a loss, its sad that man can say he was once the heavy weight champ of the world.

          there was nothing wrong with rahman. the cut wasn't that bad. rahman had no answer for toney and knew that toney had a better gameplan than he did and pussied out. rahman deserves the tko loss.

            The official call IMO should of been NC, but that cut was not bad enough to stop a fight over in the first place.

            I lost cash on this fight and I'm not complaining about the ref's call. Rahman is a straight up twat for crying about that cut. Wait till the rounds over and let the cutman deal with it.

                The doc didn't even see the cut cause he was on Rock's right side and the cut was on Rock's left side. I guess he didn' thik much of it.

                  I agree it should have been ruled a NC

                  but regardless it seems to me that rachman was looking for a way out. and he got it.

                    Probably not, but he never verbally said that the cut wasn't serious enough to stop the fight. This may change the way these matters are handled in the future. The cut was definitely deep, but Rahman didn't exactly show the same heart that Vitali did either.

                      What's funny is that accidental headbutt was called in round 2, why didn't Rahman call the Doc after round 2 but did so after round 3 when he was stumbling like a hurt donkey?
