"Once a boxer receives a cut above the eye it tends to bleed and bleed. The referee has to make a decision whether it's good to carry on fighting with such a cut. The blood started pouring down Mohammed Rabil's face as they continued to fight it out. When he got to the bell (end of the round) I got my 70-200mm out and shot his face tight whilst he received a spray of water to help cool him down and remove the blood. The reason this picture works so well is his expression while being sprayed. I think it sums up what it takes to win - 'no pain no gain.'" - julianfinney | August 15, 2016 | #GettyAtTheGames #RioTakeover
