    No I think it was because Tyson was punching him....but I could be mistaken

    Something must have been there in his mind to quit ,he knew his own body .The promise of it getting worse for him probably helped him make the decision.

    Golota was scared shitless and Tyson was giving him an ass beating. All this stuff that he suffered a fractured cheekbone, broken jaw, herniated discs in his neck, etc was a bunch of nonsense. The only proof needed was the turd in the back of his boxing trunks.

    Good point, I can't stand him, he was demolished and quit so many times its ridiculous, and yet people give him a free pass all the time. But Shannon Briggs who took a horrendous beating against Vitali and still was standing at the end of 12 one sided rounds, so many people are ready to nail the guy to a cross.

    Golota was probably the only fighter that the 2000's version of Tyson.
