I'm trying to help you understand here but you keep coming off like someone who lost a lot of money on the fight.
Let me repeat this,
The cut was NOT an issue. The blood from the cut was NOT an issue. It was a hemorrhage behind the eyeball.
Something a ringside cutman could not control.
I'm not saying that this is something serious enough where Nate could have continued or not. I have no idea if once something like this happens if more punches or headbutts could further the damage or not. I'm not a Dr.
I do know, that Nate didn't know the answer to this either and when in doubt of losing vision in your eye, something he was already experiencing due to the "spots" floating across his eye, Nate chose to end the night.
This wasn't like fighting through a broken hand, a torn muscle, or a cut with blood streaming into your eye. This was internal damage that was unknown.
I'm more then willing to argue the facts with you.
So if you'd like to argue any of these facts, feel free, but unless you have walked the man's shoes, or any man's shoes for that matter, be more selective when you call someone a quitter.
