    They really didnt want him to quit despite his pleas to quit, his trainer was literally forcing him back out. Shouldnt they have done what was best for there man? Discuss.

    Tyson broke his skull. He was right to quit.

    no it should be ok for anyone to quit a main event PPV after 2 rounds because he is taking an ass kicking

    Tyson did break his skull. Supposedly, he also ****ed up a disk in his neck or something like that.

    Sounds like **** that could put you in a wheelchair.

    He was in fact right to quit

    no boxer should quit. golota is no exception, although it is less surprising when it comes to the polish legend

    muhammad ali , arthur abraham and ray mercer fought with broken jaws.

    that is what separates the men from the quitters

    Dr. Wesley Yapor, a neurosurgeon treating Golota, said the fighter sustained a concussion, a fractured left cheekbone and a herniated disc between the fourth and fifth cervical vertebrae.

    Yapor, who shared a conference call Sunday with Mariola Golota, said the 32-year-old fighter was fitted with a cervical collar and will need therapy....

    If he had sustained another serious blow to the head he could have become paralyzed," Yapor said. "There's no way I would have allowed him to enter the ring for the second round."

    this is what i always heard (at least the cheekbone break). golota was right to quit, which one of you keyboard warriors was going to support him in old age when he continued and got permanently effed up?? this wasn't an injury to hand/arm/leg late in a fight he was winning against some average fighter. it was real early with an atg punching headhunter. it took balls to quit and walk out when every other nucklehead is yelling at you to continue (even his own corner)

    The man (golota) couldnt even speak properly after the fight, in the the locker room interview ,he was confused and wasnt making sense at all, I think if he even went another round longer he might be a vege right now. In hindsight his cowardice/mental unstableness and erratic behaviour saved him from permanent damage and his pride was no worse off....
