    Any one else watching this? Did you see that damn goose egg on Rahman's head? It is hideous. He could be used as a stunt double on that Mike's Hard Ice Tea commercial.

    They stopped the fight and went to the judge's score cards. The woman judge had it had it for Rahman (what the fuck fight was she watching) the two men judges had it Holyfield. Split Technical decision for Holyfield.

    that was a freaky looking thing. Damn knot on his forehead the size of a fist.

    I wish they had kept fighting. I wanted to see Holyfield hit it and bust it open like a ripe tomato.

    It was stopped when Rahman told the ring doctor that he couldn't see Holyfields punches coming at him. On the replay it was clearly a headbutt that started the swelling. The three shots he soon took on top of the mouse the headbutt started didn't help out a hell of a lot either. Outside of a boxer getting beaten bloody, it's the most gross thing that I've seen in a fight. Picture a grapefruit cut in half and placed just above your left eye and you'll about have an idea of what it looked like.

    OK. Then I'm not sure why they went to scorecards. Holyfield won anyway, but I thought if you don't show for the bell, then it's a TKO.

    The fight was stopped in the middle of a round. Being that the cause of the stopage was the result of a headbutt, they went to the scorecards.
