    I tried to find him when I was in Vegas but I couldn't. I dont think he trains at Xtreme Couture like I was. He has his own gym.

    To me Judah showed more heart than De La Hoya did. Hell Judah was fighting a bigger man and was giving all he had. He tried to save face by saying he could not see but he showed heart. De La Hoya did not show that much heart to me. They asked him did he want another round and he did not respond. Same **** to me. There were times in the he was just taking punches he didnt try to fight back.

    No. He had his corner stop it. He even says it in an interview afterward that it was his choice to stop the fight.


    If you want to spin it like that, DLHs corner stopped the fight too :nut

    What? Im saying if he spins it to look like Cotto didn't quit, the same could be said about DLH.


    DLHs corner was basically pressuring him into stopping but ultimately it was his choice.


    While Cottos corner stoped the fight it was Cottos choice for them to stop the fight.

    Well, my english is not perfect but yes, we tend to disagree.
    Like on that thread. I have to admit Cotto and DLH DID kinda quit. But i don't want to call them quitters. I find that word a bit too pejorative for these ring warriors.

    I dont call them quitters either.

    But they did quit.

    If either quit again then they would be labeled as quiters.

    Well, like someone here said before....better being label as a quitter than be permanently damaged...
