If a foul causes a fighter to be unable to continue later in the bout, it ends with a technical decision win to the injured fighter if the injured fighter is ahead on points, otherwise it is a technical draw."

I think that Lauzon was ahead on points even after the deduction since I had him winning the first round. Actually it might have been tied...what happens if you have an illegal strike and the match is a tie on points?
It sounded like a DQ and then Cole would have been awarded the fight but he said that he did not want to win that way. Dana did not say what would have happened but it was infered that if there had been a DQ, Cole would have been awarded the win.
