Referee admits stopping Usyk vs. Verhoeven fight after the bell
Referee Mark Lyson told the Middle East Professional Boxing Commission he saw enough to stop the Oleksandr Usyk vs. Rico Verhoeven fight in the 11th round before the bell. Verhoeven appealed the result, claiming the referee ended the contest after the bell. The commission agreed the fight concluded after the bell but ruled it had no bearing on the outcome.
