    Why didnt Barrera pull out before 4?

    Good performance by Khan but Barrera looked poor in his last few fights and was fighting with one eye, but why didn't his CORNER stop it before the end of the 4th it was obvious he couldn't see out of the eye so it would have been a NC wouldn't it? now i am saying the CORNER pulling him out not BARRERA QUITTING OK.

    I WILL SAY THIS AGAIN I AM TALKING ABOUT THE CORNER THE CORNER I KNOW BARRERA WOULDN'T QUIT PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE POSTING AHHHHHHHHHH. BUT AS SOMEONE POINTED OUT IT WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN A NC ANYWAY SO IT DONT MATTER.

      Because of two things, heart and pride.

        lol Why would he!?

        Khan's power wasn't really effecting him, he hurt Khan twice, he probably felt like he had a chance. He was movin his head just enough, he was movin in the ring just enough, and he probably felt Khan was gettin a little tired himself.

          As has been said, because he is a true warrior with balls to match. To him, his pride is more important than his statistics.. in which regard he has nothing else to prove.

              And risk being a called a quitter here on boxingscene? He couldn't live with himself.

                No it would have been a TKO loss only the doctor or ref can stop it based on a cut without it going down as a TKO, Barrera wanted the doc to stop it

                  That is not what i am trying to say is it, the corner knew that he was one eyed and was going to lose as it was almost impossible for him to actually time a shot to land, i know Barrera wouldnt quit but im just saying it might have been smart for his corner to pull him out in the 4th thats all.
