"Quitter" and Coward"

[Bushidō]

Boxing is a gladiator sport. Fighters are looked upon as the ultimate men of men. To quit in the ring makes you one of us. Its not fair, but that's the code in boxing. As a fan you should've been known this.

your first great post. I'll K you up.

Any legit fighter that laces em up and gets in there deserve our praise. Boxing is as close to death an experience as any sport a professional athlete will ever engage in.
You gotta figure plenty of those guys aren't very bright to begin with, desperately put their life on the line to earn peanuts.. the true "cowards" will literally do whatever it takes to even the playing field. Load their gloves, get juiced, sucker punch you or even bite your ear off when your guard is down. Did I mention loading their gloves? Realizing the dangers of a sport that's left it's participants handicapped or worse and marching ahead anyways is truly commendable. Respect.

A quit is a quit.

Only p*ssified emotional fans have a problem understanding this.

just as a beeeeatch is a beeeeeatch (as previously defined)

I don't go out of my way to call professional fighters "cowards". Going out and facing somebody that is trying to physically inflict as much pain and damage as possible, in front of a large group of people takes some pretty big balls, I reckon.

If you quit, then you quit. The circumstances involving a boxer quitting, and some guy quitting his job because he didn't get a prime parking spot are a little different, though.

[The Gambler1981]

A quitter is a guy who quits, what do you want people to say about such a situation. Now there can be good reasons for quitting, it shouldn't even be that big of a deal.

Coward would be a little tougher for me to call a boxer considering their line of work, but still there are fights where dudes fight scared. I think the word gets overused specifically about fights that didn't happen (which usually don't happen for much more obviously apparent reasons than fear) but there are times it can get used reasonably.

[Spray_resistant]

All fighters have courage for sure, but if things get tough and you quit.....well.

Anybody who knows me from this Boxing forum knows I despise anyone who calls a boxer a quitter or a coward. Typically it comes from knownothing boxing fans who call into work the second they get the sniffles. And all this nonsene that boxers are warrior blah blah blah shut the *** up they are Athletes nothing more. The money you pay for your HBO subscription or the money you spend on a PPV does not entitle you to call a boxer a coward or a quitter. It entitles you to watch the fight and entertained thats it! So plase shut the *** up with this gladiator talk thats just ******.

But I agree with Ric-Dic as a paying customer if your just holding like Carlos Molina/John Ruiz/Wladimir Klitchko you are a cancer to this sport and deserve to get boo'd robbing fans out of their hard earned money.

Umm. Angulo flat out quit. He could have finished. He was entirely capable, he just "didn't want to".

You forgot to mention Lara finished his fight and schooled Williams with an injury similar to Angulo's.

Angulo = a vajayjay
