Hope Sutherland is ok. Tough way to lose by inj default. That kid is as tough as they come. I'm sure Daisy May will have something smart to say . Not sure why that killed wasn't called for stalling?

Man ... What a warrior! Hate it for him! I was so impressed with his toughness this entire tournament fighting through obvious pain.
