By the letter of the rule it was shady but at the same time the doctor wouldn't have stopped it if not for Rahman doing all he could to get him to stop it (outside of actually saying stop it)

Exactly. There was really nothing wrong with the decision if you ask me, Rahman didn't want to fight. When you think about how many guys have fought on with much worse cuts after being behind anyways in the later rounds, it makes Rahman look like a little girl for those antics last night. He milked that for everything it was worth during and after the fight, and obviously wanted the out. I can understand since the NC rule is in place for 4 rounds or under, he obviously expected to get that result. But the fact is he wanted the fight stopped when he could have continued.
And Toney was whipping his ass anyways![]()
I gave Rahman the first round solely because Toney was less active than him in the 1st. Toney got comfy and came on in the second. The funny thing is, Rahman pumping his jab all night long may have worked. It kept Toney outside, trying to figure a way in, but Hasim just opened the door in the 2nd and invited him in.
