When Prescot knocked Amir down the 1st time, he did not only immediatly stand up when he was clearly hurt but he also gave the ref the sign to continue the fight despite the fact that Amir was "all over the place". And then when Prescott knocked him down again, Khan was in a very bad state but he still tried to get up. We all saw he didn't succeed.
But Ortiz on the hand just basicly threw in the towel. I don't blame him because the swelling was very bad but I don't see Khan ever doing this. At a young age in the beginning of a fighters carreer it is very hard to continue fighting when you get hurt very badly.
I'm not hating on Ortiz because I admire him as a fighter and his personality and I also feel that he could have won last night against Maidana if he just kept his composure.
P.S.: Khan beat and stopped Ortiz at the amateurs
. Just like to mention it.
