Round 7

Left hook from Thompson lands. Rahimov trying to work inside, but Thompson keeps him off with the jab. Rahimov counters with an overhand right. Rahimov inside starts to go to work and Thompson clinches, the ref is in there quickly to separate them. Rahimov lands a craqcking right, Thompson complains about a headbutt, but those were clearly punches. "Rahimov, Rahimov" is heard from the crowd. Big exchange. Thompson starts landing some big shots an overhand right rattles Rahimov, but his (Thompson) nose is red and his mouth is open.

10-9 Rahimov

69-64 Rahimov
