It did look like he quit but there is no shame after what he put forward. I won't rank him in the same way as Ali or similar unstoppable forces but the guy is a warrior who gave us the best fight this year. If you had asked me at any stage prior to the ko, I would struggle to see Appleby quit or even stopped. Walsh was landing his best stuff but he stayed consistent to the sweet science and a prepostrous amount of body shots finally broke Appleby. Fights like that you just wish you were actually there.
