When Abe was profusly bleeding on the mat in the first episode of TUF 10 should Mazzagatti have stopped it to let a doctor look at it? I think so. At the end of the first rnd it was sending a steady STREAM of blood to the mat. I am all about letting the fight go and hate cut stoppages but, looking at the vid of the end of the episode with the doctor getting ready to stich him up saying he could see the skull is a bit crazy to me. Mazzagatti shoul have had it checked, that was a crazy cut!!!!

There's nothing much Mazzagatti could have done if the doc cleared it between rounds.

It was one of the worst cuts I'v ever seen though! I watched it with my girlfriend and she had her hand over her eyes for pretty much the whole of the first round and this is a girl that laughs when people get KO'd and likes Mir because "He broke that ugly guys arm!".

Never before have I been able to see the mans skull from a cut, watch right after abe gets up after the fight, look at his head, you can see it, white as snow where skin should be.

Yes with a cut that bad it should be checked by a doc. However between rounds a corner man / doc did check it out and said it was ok. So in the same regards who is Steve to have him re-check the cut because it's bleeding. It didn't bleed any worse than it did in the first round, so I think he made the right decision. Besides....who doesn't like blood?

I'm guilty of arm-chair refereeing here. I couldn't see during the fight, so I said let him go as long as it's not in his eyes. But looking at the cut after the fight, I can't believe the doctor let it continue. That was a horrible cut.

..Reminded me of Joe Riggs (?) blond hair getting stained red ..

I was actually surprised Abe was a conscious as he was considering the blood loss he was incurring. I know it wasn't enough to hurt him per se, but when you are in the midst of vigorous activity, losing that much blood would normally take a huge toll on someone.
