It's more likely for the ref to stop the fight, or the corner throw in the towel. I don't think we'll ever see Ortiz quit again. Maybe if he fights Pac then maybe he would quit...Pac is non-stop.
There was a switch in Otiz's head that was triggered when he was criticized for his performances prior to the Berto fight. He became more aggressive and set out to prove he wasn't the quitter everyone called him.
He had a flash-back moment when he was knocked down by Berto, but he told himself to keep fighting regardless. That added fuel to his desire to win.
I would like to think he learned from the past and won't quit against Floyd even if he appears to be losing the fight. His pride is at an all-time high right now.
