    Duran was not at the end of his carear,not even close,he was much closer to his prime,then to his retirement,and unlike Hoya and Tszyu,Duran was not Bloodied and beaten.

    It was a historic fight. Mostly because he quit and the contraversy as to why he quit. To say it was unfair to fans cause he wasnt hurt and he probably could have gone on to finish the fight is hypocritical. That argument would be that he didnt do his part to ensure the fans got their moneysworth. Now, decades later we are still talking about the fight, so that argument is baseless. Same thing goes for Tszyu. He fought his heart out for 11 rounds in a memorable fight. I wish he would have finished the fight, but he he ended his career the way he chose to, just like he chose to step in the ring in the first place. I dont think it is fair to label either a quitter.

    ive heard he quit cuz he needed 2 have a number 2 lol no joke as daft as it sounds, but then i seen an interveiw were duran sain leonard wuldnt stand and fight so he gave up. u cant slag a fighter 4 givin up. if u was in a fight and was gettin ur head boxed off and u knew u wasnt goin 2 win then fair play its better than gettin a beatin 4 12-15 rounds. ime not sayin u shuld just quit ime just sayin wen i fighter quits there quitin 4 a reason.
