IBF middleweight champion Arthur Abraham will have to spend three or four days Evangelischen Hospital in Wetzlar, Germany after surgeons successfully repaired his broken jaw suffered Saturday in his win over Edison Miranda. Although speech was difficult, the champ was able to say, "If the jawbreak hadn't happened, I would have defeated Miranda in the sixth round....I immediately noticed that he is there to be hit." Abraham will certainly be out of action for an extended period. Promoter Wilfried Sauerland stated, "I think that Arthur can start light fitness training again in three or four weeks. And in three months he will be certainly be far enough to begin selected box training."

Labelling it quitting because another fighter with a similar type of injury kept fighting is always problematic, unless you know they both have the exact same degree of injury.
I dont see how angulo could continue to fight given his injury. We agree you can play hurt but you cant play injured. Angulo was injured, ortiz was injured. Margarito and abraham weren't. if they were they couldn't of continued.
yes.
it ripped through his mouth.
