And in my opinion, I don't think Mikey lacks heart... he (and his team) were thinking with their heads. It was his first title fight after all, and fighting with that broken nose (which I think WAS accidental and so did Mikey) would have only given Salido a chance to injure his nose further. I don't think it would have caused Salido the chance to win, but Mikey was gonna have to breathe completely with his mouth open and could have risked damage (but not lossage). Mikey has plenty of time to prove heart when he fights someone who is even more of a challenge the Salido was. I get if it was a close fight, but it wasn't. Quitting after accidental injury while your winning doesn't equal no heart IMO. He's the one who has to keep fighting on, not us.
