We're just talking semantics.
Ducketts is using the classic boxing version of 'quitting a fight' as such.
In actual fact, Angulo quit the fight. Angulo did quit in practical terms if you will, but in boxing terms, he did not quit. He had to pull himself out because of severe danger and agony from a broken orbital bone.
In the classic boxing way, he didn't quit the fight. He was forced to pull out and there is a difference.
As Duckette's says, Duran quit a fight that was even on the scorecards and he wasn't taking punishment in or hurt at all etc etc. Angulo pulled out due to a sudden, severe injury that resulted in him having no choice.
This is different even than Margarito or Lebedev even. Swelling or a cracked bone can sometimes be painful, but not agonising.
Clearly, Angulo's was instant, agonising, must stop pain or danger. His vision might have suddenly disappeared with a popping in his head a suden, brutal, hideous pain....that can differ greatly from a swollen eye or even another lesser fracture.
It all depends. Either way, in the typical boxing lingo, he didn't 'quit'.
