I think the ref called it way too early. It didn't even look like Muscles was hurt plus he got right up after the call. If a fight ends 8 seconds into it, the guy better have a broken bone, large cut, or be limp on the mat.
New theory: Belly IS in the mafia, and it was "suggested" to the ref by his corner that Belly aught to win...

If you look carefully, Thompson was very wobbly when he got up. Maybe the fight *was* stopped a few seconds too early, but it was already over anyway.
Besides, if you look up the rules for this type of fighting, "broken bone, large cut, or be limp on the mat" are relatively uncommon events.
