Which fighter would you consider that most unforgivable for retiring during a fight, and refusing to fight on? I'll throw a few names/fights in a poll..
Where is Duran vs Sugar Ray Leonard? That is the granddaddy of all quit jobs. Obviously a very biased thread starter. Never adds in any past greats, just puts the modern days ones. Tyson vs McBride (Obvious quit job is obvious) Duran Arguello 2 Klitschko Ortiz vs Maidana
Golota against Mike Tyson and Michael Grant. Duran-Leonard's no mas is pretty legendary though how about mccall in the rematch with lewis?
I bunch of the fights were legit TKO and quits. I dont get why people are flaming Ortiz for his quit in the Lopez fight.
Among the choices: Alexander to Bradley. The rest of them had medical concerns and/or were taking severe beatings in there. I'll never hold it against a guy who is getting punched for quitting. No shame in Ortiz/Maidana. No shame in Dawson/Ward.
^ OFC . There SHOULD be some exceptions Cases like Lewis vs McCall Ortiz vs Lopez Should be forgiven. :good
Oh, but of my own choice, I will say: RTD3 Ray Nahr against Alvarado. Quit on his stool after three rounds of total non-action. Claimed stomach cramps. In all honesty though, he goes back home and never sees an American or American media member again. If I were him, I wouldn't have cared if my bowels gave way part way through the fight. Maybe it would gross Alvarado out, make him look down and you could catch him (shrugs).
