How many of you think that Angulo quit

[Jack Napier]

this thread is an odd read
@ Dunn; why are you so gung ho arguing Angulo didn't quit?
you've got a right to your opinion, but this seems cut and dry
honestly can't tell if you're trolling or serious here

This is where you are wrong.

It IS quitting.

Because two fighters can get the SAME EXACT injury, one can fight through the pain and the other cannot.

The guy who couldnt deal with the pain, isn't quitting?

In what world?

Yeah, Im done.

Your view is warped.

as is your position that only extreme injuries determine whether an athlete quits or not.

you said yourself a broken arm makes it impossible to fight so its not quitting. so as soon as one fighter fights with a broken arm all those after that dont fight are quitters?

yeah that makes sense.

the only difference is which injuries we use for the threshhold of "not being able to compete".

yeah its best to go niether of us are going to change our position and personal insults are probably on the horizon.

I wasn't gong ho when this started yesterday. it has deviated a lot. I gave my reasons.

Perfect example here.

Bringer is quitting because his brain has been battered to mush by this thread, however, I'm persevering. It's an injury that has forced his retirement but he still quit.

...and listen motherfucker. Don't give me no Abraham shit here, we [I & Bringer] are both suffering from some form of neurological injury but my heart is pulling me through.

It's time like these that separate the casual posters from keyboard warriors and I have the heart of a warrior.

Epic ending.

You are though, maybe you don't realise it.

You can't say, 'I don't see it as quitting' when the word describes exactly what it is. You can say, 'yes he quit but not because he didn't want anymore but because he was injured'.

I'm sure me, Bringer & Reed all share the same opinion that it was injury that caused Angulo to abandon his pursuit. However, I do get a small sense of frustration from him when he retired.

Don't fuck with the English language, son.

Epic ending.

funny stuff.

that said I can only tell you my position. if a boxers ability to fight is compromised by an injury-I dont see it as quitting.

question-If angulo stopped fighting because of a low blow, ref gives him 5 minutes, he says I can't go on, is that quitting?

You know what I quit?

This ****ing thread.

But are you injured?

[ßringer]

But are you injured?

Severely.

[Suavecito80]

Severely.

hahahaha

I had to quit, because my ability to think in a logical and rational manner was at risk. My brain was taking too much abuse from the ******ation taking place in this thread. When faced with the real possibility of turning into a ****** myself, I did what was best for me and my family.

Nobody has a right to fault me for this one, or say that I quit. Because I didn't.
