Worst quitter in boxing..

[imp]

After Khan recently said “no mas” after taking a thigh shot from Crawford..who would you say is the worst quitter in boxing history.

Define what a quitter is..there must be levels of quitting..Brook had to quit due to the eye injury..what is an acceptable level of quitting?

[Master]

Duran with his no mas against Leonard. No real excuse for it but he more than made up for it in his career.

Buster Douglas against Evander.

Seldon faking against Tyson.

[holmcall]

Tor Hammer who quit twice on the stool and was then fired by his promoter via Twitter.

[Master]

Golota against Tyson and in a way against Bowe.

There are very few good examples imo. While Golota against Tyson seems one, i remember reading somewhere that he did in fact suffer a concussion and they found some abnormality or bleeding/swelling on the brain afterwards. Almost always too harsh to call a top fighter out for quitting, they dont get there with that in them and we arent in there bodies, etc. I think that fighting to survive from the get go actually takes a lot less than doing everything you can to win and then packing it in once youre out of options, and we see that all the time.

Douglas quit before he got on the ring. Disrespected the title.

Still remember Gary Mason calling the fight after around 40 seconds

[Hulk]

Yori Boy Campas takes the cake for most prolific quitter. He’s still a badass in my book though and fought forever.

[Spicoli]

What about this one? A lot of talk about him being shorted so he sent a message to promoters...like don't ever bring me in for a big fight again?

After the 3rd round Jermaine White told his corner, "throw the towel man, I'm through"


His trainer had the nerved to ask him, 'you aint got another round in you?'

Anthony Peterson is just pasting this kid. His chin really was sturdy, but his arm punches were so weak, I'm not sure what the hell was his corner thinking, asking him if he had another round in him. While It doesn't qualify as the worst quitter, I think this fight qualifies as a fighter who had to quit, because his corner seamed content to tell him to do stuff, that no way could he do!


If you got time to watch 3 rounds of a shellacking...this is it!

[Master]

White should have had a code for him to retire/quit with his trainer.

Axe Man Walters

as usual, baal provides the best example. Name a bigger quit job, anyone on here?

[SlimTrae]

LOL. If a guy can holler 'pop' while popping his foe, yeah, no shame in staying down, take the loss.

loved his combo on the ropes, pop pop POP!POP!POP!
I guess my example should've been called, "When it's ok to quit"

[james16million]

hard one but i respect all of them for trying in the first place.
not many have the guts to step in the ring
