Mark my word AJ Banal will be a world champion in 2009.
He quit IMO.

He went down to a knee and shook his head as the ref counted to 10. He then got up immediately afterwards. Whether it was due to exhaustion or whatever, he quit. I'm sure he'll be able to come back, but he basically said 'No Mas'. He's still got a bright future though, no doubt about that.
ummm...yeahhh, basically he quit... for good reasons. pretty much the same as cotto. both will be back to fight another day.
