First time around, the cut (from an accidental headbutt with Hugo Cazares) required 19 stitches. Geez... I was THERE and didn't originally think it was THAT bad. But the pictures later told the story. Now plastic surgeons have reopened the cut and put an additional 24 stitches in there. Ivan cannot do even light ring work before the end of 2008.

So why do I even bring this up? I just think it's incredibly laughable that among the stupid comments made by sore loser Cazares after the fight was stopped, he said that Ivan "could have continued." What a clown. Cazares went on to insult Puerto Rican judges, fans... and said he'd never fight in Puerto Rico again.

Oh no, Hugo.... say it isn't so. You'll be sorely missed.




Hope the door didn't hit you in the ass on your way out, and at least the belts remained where they belong. Heh-heh-heh.
