    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"
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!

    Sometimes as a fighter (for the overwhelming 99.9999999% of boxers out there) you're going to get outclassed and sometimes brutally so. Boxing ain't football, boxing ain't baseball, boxing is not some sport where the score can get run up on you and everyone is still safe and sound albeit demoralized. Sometimes you get in there and you're in well over your head and you just get hammered and in boxing or any other combat sport that can be very dangerous it's why fighters making their professional debut typically don't get title shots or fight seasoned veterans of the professional game.


    That said I believe there's a difference in Khan and White. White was a young 13 fight professional whereas Khan was a veteran 32 year old with 37 professional bouts. White was in the deep end vs a then hot young prospect Anthony Peterson and Khan was in a TITLE FIGHT he should have been fully prepared for. White had every opportunity to take a knee and leave it like that and just say "Hell you sure did beat my ass, maybe I'll get you back after I fix my training to compete at that level" but Khan should have been better prepared and to go out on yeah it was a low blow, but hell from the first round he looked out of his depth and never looked like competing he's 32 it's now or never for titles for a legacy....he came up well short and quitting in that scenario looks worse in my view.


    The funny thing is I looked up White's career...shortly after getting hammered by Peterson he fought JC Jr who obviously picked him because AP had such an easy night with him.

    True, True and True.

    On the flip side it seems as if Khan's corner was ready to quit with him, knowing he has some skills, as you stated, a vet.... while White's corner asked the jack-most stupid azz question; You aint got another round in you?
    He did at the onset, but within 3 rounds he got all 10 rounds beat out of him.
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!
