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

I think he just overwhelms them mentally. They get too frustrated and implode. Pretty amazing stuff.

I think his mental strength is one of his biggest attributes.
Everyone who fights Loma know their in for a tough fight no matter what.

Linares quit after being in pain, and completely exhausted.

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

YouTube commenters are even dumber than women who cheer on all those "Empowering" or male bashing memes on Instagram.

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.

First of all Kovalev never got a count, the ref waived it off right away... Also, three shots to the nuts, on top of the previous lowblows throught the fight is equivalent to what Loma did to Linares? Tell me more, sir.

He was knocked out, he didn’t quit. No one can possibly recover from a liver shot.

Then why did Linares get up right after the 10 count, and then have the audacity to claim that it was an immature stoppage? He quit but wanted to blame the ref.

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

Boy was getting lit up at the end

Does anyone in boxing ever just swallow their pride and go: "Yeah, I lost. Not my night."?

No they do not. Also, they suddenly become shot fighters right after said loss according to fanboy morons who refuse to give credit.
