Should a fighter Quit?

[PACBOY]

There are many ways out of a fight. Corner can throw the towel in, You can not make the 10 count. Or referee can stop it on your feet. Quiting on your stool is a sign of weakness ..

[Dubious-Dutch]

Quiting is for people who try to hard for success.

[ACHlLLES]

Quitting is for fighters who don't believe in themselves. Ortiz was clearly winning on the score-cards yet he felt like the man in front of him was too much for him to handle. He disgraced Kansas definitely.

I ve been at fights where a guy quits....LOL he had a hard time getting to the dresssing room...People were throwing things at him and booing him lol. If i paid big money for a fight he the guy quit on his stool id be pissed. So no

It's a situation you won't know how it is until you're in that position...

Hyprocrisy is the MAIN reason I hate these threads..because..at one point or another you've quit on something..something that could have been to good benefit for you and your life..so does that make you bitchmade?...now imagine..I'd say about 95% of the people who thought about that **** they quit didn't involve you having a KNOT under your left eye and a big CUT above your right one..and some lil asian looking Argentinian swinging HARD BLOWS..NON STOP trying to literally BEAT THE **** OUTTA YOU!!..

When you're done..you're done..different people have a different tolerance for pain, defeat, mental weakness, etc but we ALL possess these weaknesses no matter to what degree..

Ortiz went out there and got BEAT..he admitted he was hurt and only he knew what that was like for him..so him continuing in fear, pain, and suffering wouldn't have done him any better..he still lost..he was beaten by a guy he should've have easily beaten..but since he felt he gave his all and dude kept coming he figured nothing would work..so might as well call it there..PERIOD!..

Yeah but none of us chose the profession of pugilist did we? none of us chose to make a living as a professional fighter...I hear what your saying none of us can know what it feels like because none of us are in the position but you can't make that comparison...it's apples and oranges.....I mean do you think the man in your sigi (Marquez) would have quit???

[KittenFlaps]

It's like my mom used to say, better to kneel and fight another day than to win the appreciation of some moron and end up losing the motor skills necessary to wipe your own ass.

But that doesn't take away human instinct or tolerance...these are still human beings who feel pain, fatigue, and BLEED!..

Marquez probably wouldn't quit cuz he's a MUCH MUCH smarter fighter..he wouldn't put himself in the positions Ortiz put himself in..

Another thing we have to realize is..Ortiz is still a KID!..he's 22!..I'm 22!..lol..I don't know what I'd do in his position..for 1 it was dramatically overwhelming for him..he's a simple kid who's had a rough life..so this is all new to him..and it got to his head..2nd he has never EVER been hit like that!..OVER AND OVER..especially when he's use to getting them out early..

Imagine if you were 22..a HOT YOUNG PROSPECT who came from nothing..and you're looked at as the next DLH!..

Now by this time you have all the faith in the world for your own skill and POWER!..now you HIT this guy with ALL you got..I mean the CLEANEST, FLUSH most POWERFUL shots you can give..and the man still gets up..and PUNISHES you BACK OVER and OVER!!..he felt he lost his momentum..and lost the faith in himself..he knew he was either gonna get KTFO! or get the towel thrown in..and the pain he was probably in..he didn't wanna take his chances!..lol

[MANGLER]

No he should not.
