    Devon Didn't Quit...

    Why quit in a close fight that you may be(and he was) losing?

    The last headbutt happened on the left eye(which wasn't cut)...the butt was so hard it caused his eye to twitch and he couldn't keep it open...

    We could all see him trying to keep it open when the ref asked him...

    As far as the burning it may have been from the vaseline(off of Bradley's head) or sweat going into his eye...

    Anyone with eyes knows that fight was still on the table, why quit?

    Feel free to disagree, but I don't think Devon quit...

    *I would have asked for a 5 min break like from a low blow if I was Devon*

    He def quit. His manuerisms said alot. He kept yelling out to trump up the headbutt that wasn't even that flush.

      He obviously quit.. he was just looking for a way out.

      And Cunningham said you had to kill him to beat him lol... a cut on the eye is a little bit short of death.

          Well idk bout the yelling...but he was trying to open his eye for the doctor...and did for a sec but couldn't keep it open...the nerve in his eye may not have let em cuz of the force of the shot...

            I'm gonna have to disagree EX.

            I felt that he was getting frustrated, expending so much energy and not landing ****. All the meaningful, eye catching punches came from Bradley.

            Alexander much like in the Kotelnik fight, kept ahhing and ehhing like a Female Tennis Player to keep Bradley off him, but kept getting tagged knowing in his mind that he was losing rounds.

            It was a instinct reaction to overreact and use that headbutt as an excuse. He didn't exactly quit but he allowed the fight to be stopped, that way he can complain about something. Much better than losing a clean 12 round decision.

              Does vaseline burn when it goes in your eyes? I dunno. I mean it's colourless so there is no bleach in it.

              Does Bradley put some stuff on his head to give it a shine?

              It's weird.

              I mean it's a bit elaborate of a way to get out of a fight.

                    I had the fight a draw

                    I think Devon had a nice lead going into the second half of the fight, and when he felt that Bradley was coming on, he looked for the easy way out. He took a head butt to the opposite side of his head, which in-turn cut Bradley ironically, and he screamed bloody murder for the other eye.

                    It was really awkward and disheartning
