What Rahman may or may not have said to his corner is completely irrelevent though. He was clearly cut, the blood was clearly obscuring his vision, it was clearly a headbutt, and the doctor clearly suggested to the referee that Hasim couldn't continue.

Even had Hasim said to his trainer, 'I've found a way to get out' it should still not change the facts.

It was a no contest. Nobody likes no contests and I really wanted Toney to win but a bad decision is a bad decision no matter what the circumstances.
