    The cut stopped bleeding fairly quickly; fighters consistently fight with bigger and deeper gashes effectively. If he defended it during the next round, his corner should have been able to stabilize his cut by the 5th round and he could have gone on to win the fight if he had it in him.

    IMO, Rahman didn't have the heart to fight with a cut and knew that a master boxer like Toney would be able to pick him apart. He was also getting frustrated that he couldn't land any big punches and Toney started to consistently land flush counters on him.

        He could have been looking for an out...

        the cut wasnt that bad...there are far worse cuts (as shown in this thread) that didnt involve the fight being stopped...it didnt APPEAR as if blood was getting in his eye...but if it was...then it was...

        im not sure and i dont want to speculate but i think he did whine a little bit...

        i dont deny it was a headbutt either...

        who knows...

          I know I said this all over the forum but...besides the fact that Toney was going to win, I took home 150$ on the fight so no arguments from me. I never cared for Rahman anyways, he's done nothing special and this is proof he IS nothing special.

            He was rocked by a right hand. I thought if Toney was more agressive he could have put Rock on his ass. Rahman's cut didn't appear to be that bad. And he kept looking for the ref after the head butt. He basically stopped fighting. So he deserves the loss because he quit mentally after the head butt and the Toney rally in the 3rd.

              He was looking for a way out, but still toney didn't win that fight last night.. Sorry, head butts shouldn't earn you a belt. The boxing commission better strip him of that belt and force a rematch between these two asap.

                LOOKING FOR A WAY OUT


                look at him pointing how bad it was after hte fight...Rematch on august 21st, ASAP. this wasnt even really a fight. Goosens holding another card in Lemore California. If Rahman accepts that fight you know hes full of **** cause he complained about fighting in CA being a factor.
