He got hit and was waiting, at the very least, for the ref to stop the match. He did not want to take a knee just to get back up and take more of the same- in fact, considering the position he was in, he probably was too shell shocked to even think about taking a knee.

At the very least he wanted the ref to stop it, or be able to make it back to his corner where he most likely would have said NO MAS!!
with all his 65 fights of experience, and his advanced age vis a vis Joshua, he should have expected a possible quick knockdown or two--you know these young guys start out fast! he didnt seem prepared
