Comments Thread For: DiBella: Martinez's Corner Did Right Thing To Stop It

[strykr619]

the cut was superficial...margarito has a totally distorted face when he fought pacquiao but has balls to continue...

martinez fought like a woman all night...

Margarito is an idiot. He will never have the same vision again because of his "machismo"...

Martinez on the other hand will have a good life after boxing.

how the **** did cotto make martinez quit....

Did you not watch the ****ing corner with sergio begging for one more round you moron

Not being able to continue is quitting. Yes it sounds harsh but that is what its called when your corner stops the fight from continuing.

Exactly cotto was focused and was the better fighter ppl thought size would win they should know that doesn't work just look how Sergio beat Chavez easy it's skills that win you the fight

Don't mean to sound harsh, but almost everyone would disagree with you.

Not continuing because your corner stops the fight is just that.

Not continuing because the fighter wants to stop the fight is what most would consider quitting.

To beat the man who beat the man, that's just a beautiful win. From here, win or lose, Miguel is surely a future Hall of Famer.

Congratulations Miguel and Freddie.

We hold fighters who keep fighting even in the face of almost certain defeat (and without thinking of their long-term health) in high regard.
But there's nothing wrong with a fighter (or his corner) who decides that he simply shouldn't continue to get hurt anymore.

It's not "quitting" if it's not the boxers choice.

Wow this is why boxing won't go that far......martinez had a nice run stoping and beating the crap out of people who where much bigger then him in a weight class he didn't belong he..blow out his knee and comes back to fight the ALWASY dangurious pr future hall of fame and legend(at least in my eyes)miguel cotto.....loses.........and now sergio martinez is a hypejobs,overrated, stuffed down our throats ,qutter..,.......shame on ya

[handsome1-1]

Right cotto you ve beat a Martinez who s way past his best, both knees damaged which became evident in round 1, and an old man. Now cotto fight GGG or Chavez if you think ur a topic ke weight.

Basically fight a legitimate middle weight who's not a cripple.
