[street bully]

Should a man wear a skirt? (Kilts dont count).

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!..

Whahhhh Whahhh whahhh..... Go out on your shield. Peroid
People know what the risk are before they get in the ring. There is people out there that will kill you in that ring. If youre not prepared to die...you dont need to get in the ring. Quitting shouldnt be a factor.

Nobody goes in to the ring saying.."If I get hit hard enough I'll QUIT!"..

Once you get hit hard enough..time and time again..that's when you consider it I'm sure..Like I said..you're only at home criticizing another mans decision..you have your opinion..just like I have mine..but at the end of the day..that's all they are..opinions..If you were to repeatedly take Maidana's shots to the face you'd know where Ortiz stood..til then..you're just another guy trying to knock the decision of another man...Who was actually..really still a 22 year old KID!..

[KILLA RIGHT]

Only if you can't breathe. Like Izzy vasquez, that's the only excuse i can think of....

It depends on the fighter. For someone like Ortiz or Cotto perhaps it was better for them to call it quits and live for another day. For someone like Margarito quitting would crush his pride. Perhaps the physical deformities after a bad beatdown like that aren't as bad as the mental shame of having quit. It's all to the fighter, the fans shouldn't knock them either way, despite there opinion every fighter deserves respect.

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 ..

a boxer should never quit, but his corner should know when to throw in the towel.

Americans quit all the time, one did last Saturday.

People are entitled to their own mind but that just tells you what kind of person you are dealing with....I am from the I CAN's....I can win... I can do it... I can work harder... I can run faster... I can loose weight.... I can stop smoking.... I can learn... I can go back to school....I can be a better parent to my children.... I can be a better husbad to my wife.... you have the I CA':s....then you have the I CAN'TS.........I am not from that group....but they do exist but often they diguise themselves in public and only show there true colors when someone from th I CAN's is put in front of them ....Maidana eis an I CAN......Think about Kelly Pavlik and the first fight with JT if he quit he wouldn't be MW Champ right now would he....I think he was hurt much worse in that fight then Ortiz was Saturday night....He hung in there and came back to KO JT....Lefty

it's usually the No Mas people who quits
