Rahman-Toney fight outcome?

Question

Did you agree with the initial decision of a TKO victory to Toney? Should the fight have gone to the scorecards?

Did you agree with the recent overruling to change the fight to a NC?

Was Rahman really that badly cut that he couldn't see, or was he looking for a way out?

Answer 1

he was looking for a way out to bad for toney toney had his beat like a red headed step child

Answer 2

If the doctor stopped the fight it should  be a nocontest but if Rahman chose to quit it should be a TKO inside of four rounds. His vision was apparently impaired due to the accidental head butt leaving him at a disadvantage and I believe they ultimately made the right decision making it a no contest however it is a shame that in two fights nothing definite could be determined about who the better boxer is. Had the fight contnued I think Toney would have taken over and dominated as Rahman struggled to see and took unnecessary punishment. For the safety of the fighter I'm glad they stopped the fight although it isn't very rewarding to the fans.

Answer 3

Rahman was scared.....he bailed out saying he couldnt see out of his left eye. But he got his sight back while he was doing an interview on Fox Sports Net directly after the fight. He was cut but I've seen worser...I've seen guy fight with broken hands,swollen eyes,broke noses.....
