I think these trainers need to do a better job of protecting their fighters. It's sad because these fighters don't want to quit on camera and the only ones that can save them is there corners. Chad Dawson corner wasn't going to save him so he had to speak up and tell the ref I am done I am finish in the fight against Ward.
