The bout has a little problem (for me), there was a misunderstanding between the referee and Edrin Dapudong. The referee asked Edrin to continue the fight and Dapudong said he can, but why the referee had stopped the bout?? I don't think Dapudong can't continue, he was just looking to recover not quitting. Anyway, it's all done, Hernan Marquez successfully defended his WBA Flyweight Title for the first time against Edrin Dapudong.
