What Did Dubois had to Gain from Continuing the Fight?

[Boxing-1013]

All these people saying he should have fought on have NEVER been in a fight before, I bet at least 9 out of 10 of them haven't. And I mean a real fight where you have an issue and need to bow out.

All of you guys are saying that you would let a guy your size punch you in the eye for another 2 rounds, when you are having serious issues with it. You obviously have no idea how each punch feels when it comes in from a good puncher your size on that eye.

90% of the guys slighting him for quitting, would quit. The other 10% might not, but they would realize how ****** they were afterwards when they see all the damage to their eye.

This is just like when Chavez Jr lost to Jacobs in EXACTLY the same way and everyone came out scrambling to defend him. Oh wait...

Just listened to the audio from the corners. They were telling Daniel he had 3 more rounds to go and he would win. Whatever he was feeling in there must have been pretty damn bad because they believed he was going to be victorious.

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?

Was his vision at risk or did he just have swollen eye with no risk to his vision? Not every swollen eye puts the boxer's eye site at risk. If his eye was in danger then the ringside doctor should have stopped the fight. He made his choice and maybe it was the right choice. Nobody else is in his shoes. It is easier to call a guy a quitter when it is him taking the pain and the risk of serious injury and not themselves.

A win over a top dog

Scared of does not equate to definitely would have. He could have, you know, protected his eye and won.

Could have, sure. Did not have the defensive skill to do so, tho.

The question was what he had to gain.

The answer is everything.

I know he wanted to quit and it wasn’t up to me if he was going to or not.

Fighters don't see the cards. I'm pretty sure he knew better than you how far his body could take him.

Don’t criticize Adolph Hitler.

You’ve never been a world leader before, so how dare you question him?

Terrible reading comprehension 'Shane' and even worse analogy. It makes 0 sense.

I'm not saying that you have to be a fighter to judge Dubois - what I'm saying is that all you keyboard gangstas would fold faster than he did if faced with a similar situation.

95%+ fighters would have taken a knee at that time, or before that time, or slightly after that time.

The other 5% or so would have been cutting off their nose to spite their face.

When your body is telling you to stop, you stop!!!! Otherwise you end up like McClellan or Dadashev!!!!
