Wow they stop the fight. Looks like it's going to go to a technical decision. Very bizarre, ringside doctor barely looked at Rocky and waved her hands to stop the fight.
Rocky cut over both eyes, both ruled by headbutts. Fight has been stopped and they're going to scorecards, anti-climatic finish. Rocky wins, but Mattice was starting to gain momentum.
Wow replay clearly shows that the cut that stopped the fight was caused by a right hand from Mattice!
If they blame it on the 2nd cut and then go to decision, technically its wrong
But I mean, the 2nd cut wouldnt have mattered as much if it wasnt for the first. And Matisse wasnt winning anything. Maybe you could give him 6th round, but Hernandez took at least 1 thru 5 for me.
Too bad how it went down. Not sure if Rocky had the power to ko him within 12, but Matisse was getting beat up.
Impossible to say what would have happened in the second half.
