    Of course we all would have quit!

    I wouldn’t fight Joe Joyce for $500,000 dollars.

    I’m not the supposed future heavyweight champion of the world.

    Daniel Dubois was.

    He quit and he showed why he will never be the real heavyweight champion of the world.

    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!!!!

      Not if he can't protect his eyes he won't. Never was going to. Look at Margarito, and Brook. A lot of times once that eye goes, you are done.

        The classic definition of risk. And, if he knew how to protect his eye, things wouldn't have reached that point.
        Marciano before he KO'd Charles.

          Yup, the corner should of stopped the fight. They should not leave it up to the fighter.

            Funny that people are using the tired talking point that if we were to be fighters, we would fold faster than him. This is not about us. This is about dubois quitting. As a fan who pays $$$ for boxing matches, we also have the right to criticise and be truthful of what we see. Why should we lie and tell what fighters want to hear? The dude quit, point blank.
