Now I'm not trying to make an excuse, but of course him not being able to breathe through the nose is going to effect him. Not getting enough oxygen, does effect your stamina.

Just remember, Israel Vazquez quit on his stool, in his first fight with Marquez, because he could not breathe through his nose.

I'm not trying to take anything away from Tony here, I'm just saying that it does have an effect on a fighter.
