    What Did Dubois had to Gain from Continuing the Fight?

    He quits, he gets to keep his vision, get experience, grow into his man body and fight another day. He continues, runs the risk of losing vision, and he doesn't get more respect. No one cares about injuries when someone loses and the armchairs won't give you extra points. Why should he puts himself at risk? For the garbage boxing base?

          Only he knows the pain he was feeling. Only he can prove his critic wrong.

              A loss like that this early in your career will almost certainly ruin you.....he may as well have stayed in there because his career is over anyway.

                What'd Chris Algieri gain from beating Provodnikov with one eye?! He was up on 2 of the cards, he stood to gain a mandatory title shot for one

                  Possibly never boxing again without financially securing his family’s and children’s future.

                  The people who call him a quitter now would call him a bum for losing anyway.

                    A world title and potentially millions afterwards because he beat f ucking MIGUEL COTTO? Lmao. Basically everything worth risking it for. Opposite of what was on the line here.

                    Might have just saved his career (and that’s not even a sure thing it sounds like). Will he get another 10+ years out of the sport? Maybe. Maybe not. But even if he never becomes a full fledged world champ, he’ll likely make a couple mil throughout his career.

                    He might do the same for all the marbles against AJ or Fury, but I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt on this one. Nerve damage and a bad break? Yikes. I wonder if he comes back with that Margarito terminator eye.
