Why wasn't Kovalev DQ'ed?

Damn,ive seen some far reaches before,but this one honestly has to be top 5.

pascal drunkenly stumbled into their hands as they were drying the ring. then he drunkenly stumbled untouched across the entire ring and fell face first into the ropes.

Kovalev had him punch drunk then.

the ref wasn't even looking. This had no bearing on his decision to stop the fight.

If anything this affected Kovalev more than it did Pascal. That corner was wetter than an olympic swimming pool. Let's hope they learn from their mistakes.

Meh pascal was done lol. He woulda fell over if not for the ropes

[Tay Roc]

But how does this explain him stumbling to the other side of the ring?

[dirty fingers]

LOL. Pascal was already falling over before JDJ's towelhand got near him.

I didn't notice that watching it live, but it certainly made him look worse off than he was.

You can't really say that when his foot stops on his towel and he falls into the ropes.
