    All true statements. I wish the beating had humbled him. It's sad to see a grown man act that way. Regardless, I'm still impressed he stuck in there.

    A lot of the following I already respected but appreciated them even more after these fights.
    Mundine against Kessler
    Brook against Spence some jerks said he quit but I thought he dug deep and gave it a good go when clearly badly hurt.
    Jacobs against GGG

    It is more how they come back after a loss. Any fighter can lose and lose big, but to come back and win a title is always impressive. They found a way to put the loss behind them.

    Keith Thurman.

    He was talking a lot in the press but backed it up in the fight and went to WAR as he said he would. He earned the respect.
