Poll : How would you rather lose a fight ??

[CutMeMick]

Go down fighting for 12...

A shot like the one Hatton took def. caused some type of change in him.
I mean that seriously rearranged something in his body.

I heard that it's cured him of that horrible disease which made him refer to himself in the 3rd person.

I believe boxers would prefer not to have a KO loss.

Wayne McCullough pleaded with the doctor not to stop his fight with Oscar Larios because he was so proud of his never been down or stopped record.

Paulie Malignaggi fully accepted Hatton was gonna beat him but protested he shouldn't have a TKO on his record.

Chris Eubank always points out his stoppage loss was due to a closed eye and would have continued if the doctor let him - says nothing to do with his chin.

Lennox Lewis argues he was never knocked unconcious, he was stopped on his feet.

But everyone knows he wasn't fit to continue. It's a good example of the feelings boxers have about being sparked

[BIG H]

But there is a difference between being close to being stopped and allowed to continue and then going on to lose a competitive fight than being absolutely shown to be inferior in every department and schooled by a better man for 12 rounds.

What the mind wants: getting spark out as soon as possible so your brain doesn't suffer substantial trauma or extra injuries due to repeated blow to the head.

What the heart wants: To go up to the end all blood and guts and to stand firm no matter how bloody and intense the war was to show the whole world that you have some balls and courage.

When it was waved off against Rahman, Lewis was on the floor. I watched it last night on KOTV on Channel 5.

The ref stopped the fight instead of counting to 10

Lewis has been floored twice in his career. Both times the ref stopped him and both times he got revenge.

When someone is Knocked out real early it can be an embarrassment or a wake up call that you were not ready and could be hurt. To take a beating and do your best hearing that final bell means that you knew you would make it to the end. My contention is not to hear oops form an early departure in my future and adapt so that I would not get too hurt and make that opponent remember that I wasn't easy so I am guilty of pride through pain.
