    1. Alexander (great acting job, wrong eye though)
    2. Ortiz (quit because he didn't "deserve" to be getting beat up)
    3. Cintron (leaped out of ring after being hit with first flush shot)
    4. Dirrell (faked being KO'd).

    Ortiz, quitting like that is a disgrace.
    Alexander lacks heart and was bothered by the cut.
    Cintron tried to scam his way into a victory but it backfired.
    Direll, I dont know I dont see the point in faking he was schooling Abraham and was on his bike well on his way to a ud.
    Out of that list I would choose Ortiz.

    Ortiz and Alexander were cut and bleeding profusely.
    Dirrell got hit with a big punch.
    Cintron jumped out of the ring and pretended to be hurt.

    Clearly Cintron.

    Ortiz - The dude didnt want to take any more punishment and lived to fight another day, theres no shame in that. No heart but at least hes got enough brain cells to stop himself from getting hurt and accepted the loss.

    Alexander - The dudes just a ***** and couldnt handle being beat. No Heart and certainly No Balls

    Dirrell - Fakes being KO'd and gets the win by dropping to his knees ( he did it a lot in the froch fight too )

    Cintron - What a dive! haha Justice got served though

    Dirrel gets it no doubt

    They are all a ****ing disgrace but Ortiz was the worst, followed by Cintron.

    GLASS HEARTS EXIST IN BOXING.

    Tough crowd in here.

    I wonder if boxers would condemn these guys as much, because they understand what its like in there, or whether its just the fans that do?

    I voted Ortiz without really thinking about it. But what is the more sensible thing to do regarding longevity, potential success, building CV long term? Either quit to avoid a beating when you know oyu have lost or hang around, take a beating and risk losing more than the fight. I think Ortiz was quite right.

    I want to change my vote to Cintron.

    I have no problem with boxers quitting, just dont like it when they think they can try and get a win out of win, and even more pissed off when they do. Victor Ortiz should get a shot against Khan in April, Rematch with Maidana or Peterson or a fight with Alexander or Mabuza/Judah winner

    this is boxing. adapt and react


    as soon as alexander got cut you could see he wasnt happy.


    he could have

    a) sucked it up and adapted his game plan accordingly ala cotto v clottey, pac v morales, jmm v pac

    b) tried for a while then when it wasnt working out he wanted out.

    he chose b. Ortiz was different because he was taking a beating and broke his will, after being floored twice.

    Cintrons was insane lol:D

    Ortiz was up on the cards and had just knocked down Maidana two times in the previous round though (from what I remember).

    If Ortiz had toughed it out for a little bit longer he could very well have been the only guy currently to have stopped Maidana.
