    Nonsense. Realising you've been outmanoeuvred and are about to have your arm broken and be out for a long time after losing shouldn't be considered quitting to a rational person.

    I mean ...the Acero bout is 100% going ahead; they've been reporting on it for months now. 5 rounds @ 187lbs. Whether or not he goes on to make a "real" pro comeback is up in the air.

    Very harsh. He got up three times (?) after taking some heavy shots...

    AJ has about as much heart as Charlie Zelenoff.

    Leo Santa Cruz seems to love slugfests, so I doubt he would quit.

    yeah but he went into sparring partner mode when he was crucified. I think he mentally quit, he could have put up a fight

    Yeah it's the smart thing to do to know when to quit but it's still quitting.Aint no two ways about it. I didn't say it was wrong to quit just that it was wrong to say that someone like Bisping had no quit in him when clearly even he knew that there's a correct time to quit.

    David Haye was prepared to die in the ring. (Unless his toe was sore)

    I'll bite. He made a conscious choice to spit his mouthguard out. How can you use that as an excuse when you've spat it out for the sole purpose of stalling the action.

    58 power shots definitely sounds better than 58 non jabs but that’s what they were and how many did he take flush? I saw the fight as iam sure most people here did, the performance was excellent and exactly what was needed to dethrone Wladimir, but there was nothing like 58 power shots even thrown by Wladimir Never mind connects, but I can’t argue with you because that would mean we would both have to watch it back, but I agree I wouldn’t want 58 power shots from Wladimir but fury didn’t take them either
