Linares claims premature stoppage, could have fought on... I believe him. He quit.

So Jorge Linares claims he wasn't that hurt by the liver shot, and that he could have fought on...

I believe him. Real liver shots make people lie on the ground in the fetal position and moan in agony.

Jorge simply dropped to his knees after the shot, and stayed there for the count... He was exhausted, he was demotivated. He quit.


Here is the clip of Linares staying on his knees for the count, deciding to get up a few seconds after the ref counts 9:





Here is the post fight interview where he says the stoppage was premature:

"Well obviously the op knows nothing about boxing."

That's the reaction I got earlier when I said it.

It's true, though. He didn't want no more. Another no mas, just a subtle version.

there was a poster that had the name of gancho izquierdo al higado or something similar and thats what happened to him.

[Slyboots]

He definitely no mas'd. He beat the count but his body language showed that he was done.

There's no shame in that, he gave Loma a hell of a fight and walked through hell doing it.

What do you mean? The poster quit?

LOL if you look at the youtube comments online, Bob Arum has the deepest pockets ever. Many are claiming Linares got paid off like Rigo, Like Walters, etc etc

Linares is sponsored by De La Hoya, the greatest and latest threat to kitchen utensils.

I don’t see Arum outbidding Oscar, as Oscar would match Arum’s offer, and also throw in a complimentary **** massage.

His reaction at the end was not the reaction of someone who thought the stoppage was premature.

[Illmatic94]

He had zero complaints at the stoppage so I don't wanna hear that mess from him. Same thing with Quitvalev who had no issue when Ward stopped him and only started crying during the post fight conference. Quitnares and Quitvalev need to accept those fckn L's and move on.

[Tony Mangtana]

Linares should be gracious in defeat. It was a good stoppage
