    Pretty surprising IMO.
    It's called a quittage.

      Yeah. Bell's corner stopped it after the 7th.

        Whatever it is. It really didn't look like he was out of it IMO. I guess his mentality disagreed with me though.

          Probably a really bad sign for O'Neil Bell considering the fight is being held in Poland.
          You don't think Adamek was winning at the time Bell quit?

              I didn't say that. I just said that if the neutral commentators felt they were going to Adamek, there probably was little chance that 3 judges judging a Polish fighter in Poland were going to score those for Bell.

              That's all I was saying.

              Usually even rounds go to the home fighter, and there is no chance that rounds that should go for the home fighter will not go to him.

                Well, he was stopping and standing completely still at different points. Watch the 'No Mas' fight. When a fighter is stopping like that it's a clear sign of frustration. Frustration, being one of the other reasons fighters quit..

                  He bet on Adamek.

                    Fair enough. I was just saying that from a physical standpoint, and what was happening in terms of punches landing and what not in the rounds, it didn't seem like a stoppage would be expected, but clearly, the mentality of it was more important than that.

                      That's ok, he can't see apparently.
