He quit...
Yuri Foreman got injured and kept on fighting didn't quit.
There are other fighters have aged and had wars and didn't quit. So that is not an excuse at all...

Carlos Ortiz did not fold, Juan La Porte did not fold, Jose Basora did not fold (he defeated Jake La Motta and Sugar Ray Robinson).
Its the boxing program, Trinidad was never schooled on how to face a jab lol, Wilfredo Gomez lost two fights but never recieved a rematch for either and he is considered, the best ever at his weight class....better question is how many fighters have folded to a Puerto Rican fighter?
ALL - TIME
Wilfredo Gomez
Carlos Ortiz
Felix Trinidad
Jose Torres
Wilfred Benitez
Jose Basora
John Ruiz
Fres Oquendo
Hector Camacho
Pedro Montanez
Juan La Porte
Carlos De Leon

I will say that PRs are not dumb enough to think losing an eye for glory is cool. Sorry but as much as we love boxing, we love ***** a bit more and hence, no need to play "El macho" 24/7.
I often wonder why that Jewish Fighter Yuri folded when Cotto forced a glove into his ribs.

I dont speak to people who talk like that about Izzy Vazquez.
You will never see a picture of Cotto or Tito in fishnets bent over bracing himself on a wall for a ten pound dildo.
How can Mexicans even come out in the sunlight after that sht??!
