I don't believe him.....you could clearly see he was not into the fight anymore when his trainer was pleading with him telling him thsi fight is not over and then as he continued to look uninterested in what his trainer was telling him the fight was stopped......He ****ing quit on his own will I don't care what they claim.Now to the topic at hand why the **** does'nt he want to avange his defeat against Young Diaz if he wants to be LW "Champ" again?He needs to hang em up he always will crumble when the going gets tough....... -
I've had a few people tell me the translator was off and Suarez was asking actually asking him to stop the fight.I don't believe him.....you could clearly see he was not into the fight anymore when his trainer was pleading with him telling him thsi fight is not over and then as he continued to look uninterested in what his trainer was telling him the fight was stopped......He ****ing quit on his own will I don't care what they claim.Now to the topic at hand why the **** does'nt he want to avange his defeat against Young Diaz if he wants to be LW "Champ" again?He needs to hang em up he always will crumble when the going gets tough.......Comment

Freitas was asked by his trainer do you still want to fight? thats when freitas nodded his head NO. I diddt read the article but is he saying he didnt quit. The guy was talking spanish in the corner and i understood word for word. Freitas flat out quit.Comment

Oh well that would make a difference.....but either way looked like a defeated fighter uninterested to continue either way.....would'nt you say?
Also why is he going after these other guys instead of a rematch.....especially if his corner stopped the fight but he wanted to continue?He did still have a chance to win on points Diaz had'nt completely run away with it yet....although it appeared headed that direction.Comment

What about Morales? He basically stayed down rather than take more punishment from Pacquiao and Freitas never came out for the ninth round to avoid taking more punishment. Morales fights for a title in August.
Is there really a difference between the two?Comment

Is this guy joking? He quits and thinks he can get another shot at the title,nope,i wanna see Diaz win another and be the fully unified champComment
