    Default Re: Worst quitter in boxing..

    Golota pulled the against Michael Grant also. Think he was ahead by a bit and got dropped late and promptly told the ref..nope I gotta go. We've seen guys opt out in different ways. From intentional fouls inviting a DQ to staying on the stool. Milking rules or having them milked for them with cuts or mystery injuries once clear of the ND or NC 4th round point. In fairness substantial injury is real. To get pounded round after round cut up and know you're so far behind. But when you think flat out quit it's usually the kneel, turning your back or between rounds. Not easy to call professional fighters 'quitters' but as mentioned some guys have established patterns. Ortiz, Golota and Hammer are good ones. Have to add Yori Boy Campas who had his share of oddly opting out in a few big fights. Remember David Allen in two of the Hopkins fights caught peeking at the ref when he was 'out' . Those were some ugly fights. The hot and frigid Bert Cooper had a few times it was easier to just stay seated. Cooper quit against Carl Williams and that reputation followed him right into Foreman fight where he was legitimately hurt but they took his purse. Then over the next number of years he's bringing Holyfield, Mercer and Moorer to the very brink of defeat. At times you have to wonder what goes through a guys head.
