    Litzau was hurt bad should have known there wasnt much left in the round

    he should have took a knee rather than eat a ten punch combo and be stopped

    it was round 1 of a ten or twelve rounder

    he should have known better

    may not have changed the outcome but if he went to a knee after he was first hurt and was getting flurried he would have got outta the round

    have you boxed before? taking a knee just seems unacceptable. imagine taking a knee during sparring?

    The reason why is that they aren't Puerto Ricans who are known to be kneegals and softies.

    Man **** that. I'll never take a knee unless I'm forced to.


    But on the real it's probably the best idea, but as a fighter it's hard to do

    That's like taking a knee in the end zone or calling for a fair catch, weak.

    The best recent example of this is Vazquez Jr. vs. Arce.

    I was rooting for Arce like a wildebeest from start to finish, but in the final round it was so necessary and apparent that Vazquez Jr. take a damn knee that I was literally screaming for it...
