I applaud Victor Ortiz for quitting.

[Kobe Bryant]

I've never quit in FN4. Yeah I know guys, I'm a warrior.

Truer words are rarely spoken. It's a great thing not all fighters quit on their stools or there'd be anarchy.

The man put up a good effort and simply came up short.

That's vastly different than a boxer who puts up no effort and decides to call it a day after getting punched only one time.

He was honest enough to speak his truth in front of thousands.

Many others have blamed everything under the sun except themselves for the outcome.

It happened early in his career, and will no doubt be brought up if he decides to continue fighting.

Perhaps, this is his wake up call to re-think, re-organize, and re-structure his future as a fighter and come back stronger.

Only time will tell.

Man i was defending Ortiz for hours last night,i even made a post basically stating what if he would have kept fight and died like Levander Johnson or brain damaged like Oscar Diaz its titled Death please read i was a pretty decent sized thread.

It's about time someone came about and simply said "No, I just quit because I didn't want to end up like Ali, and a complete vegetable that can't even speak, just to please a bunch of ****ing ******* on the internet who have absolutely never stepped into the ring at such a high level and had to fight for money and yet have the temerity to call me *****! I would rather come back and fight properly and healthily another day and win."

I think he gave us a good fight and will surely be back, hopefully better than ever and with the mind set to now make sure he doesn't do what wankers like the majority of this board want him to do.

Get over yourselves you bunch of hypocritical ******. Every single one of you would ****e your pants in a second if faced with the prospect of some guy across the ring who has knocked out every single one of his opponents, and he wants to literally pulverize your face into moosh.

Oh, wait, that's right, you all just sit on your arses and play on your computer typing about a fighter who gives you entertainment as being a ***** for providing you with one of the best fights of the year so far! You ****ing bunch of wanking **** ******s. Damn, I'm sick of hearing pathetic little kids whine about a fighter quitting. How many of you have been smashed in the face over and over by a guy with serious power? None of you! Christ, Id like to take a bat to some of you losers calling him a quitter or a *****. Not a single one of you who call him that would even know what it's like to step into that ring and fight someone desperate to kick your head in. You all disgust me.

great post!!!

still cant deny.. im shocked!!!!!!
i didnt expect this outcome.... props to medaina.....he deserves the big win!!!

Will do. Thanks.

It looks like ODLH has a stable of them with Guerrero and Ortiz. The Golden Boy's future is taking a hit.

First Guerrero quits, then Kirkland gets busted and now Ortiz quits. Oh yeah, and Escobedo and Jacobs are over rated.

Oscar's gotta be pissed...but then again, these guys can always claim they never posed in sexy lingerie

You are a coward. Lmao.

[rob6465]

That's the sad part. You have people out there that say that a boxer who quits is forever ruined and should not box again.....huh? Let me see....fight another round and be spoon-fed for rest of your life or quit, gather yourself and decide if this sport is really for you.....but you live another day. Hmmmmmm that's a tough one......spoon-fed/coma/lose eye or say no mas...hmmmmmmmmm

[713832281]

i dont know about that, izzy couldnt breathe when he stopped, not cuz he couldnt beat his opponent like ortiz.

There is different levels of quitting. This kind of reminds me of Vazquez quitting in the Marquez fight.

[Curtiz]

if you're gonna be a fighter

expect to take a beating

ali this ali that......be a ****ing banker then
