Remind me...didn't Dubs fight a round or so with that confirmed broken orbital bone?
With Dubs, he had the injury, didn't quit on his stool but stayed down after taking a punch on it.
Right...he fought on with it, but found it too excruciatingly painful and got worried about how it felt. My point as a comp to BJS absolutely quitting on his stool with no effort to carry on. His eye didn't look as bad as Dubs.
And if you are the sort that genuinely has the no quit in them attitude look at the Australian girl, Margarito, Lebedov, same for Tyson Fury too.
I think he would get stick for quitting anyway but much more so because of his previous outspoken attitude about doing it.

Can remember margarito shouting NO every time his corner suggested pulling him out against pacquiao with the same injury.

Interesting that all of the Matchroom/MTK fighters aren't pedaling the quiter narrative. Quite a change from Dubois. Presumably not under orders of the management(s) this time around..
Anthony Bellew has not said a word about this fight. Complete silence. I wonder why?
They know where their bread's buttered.

He did quit, but it was also the right thing to do.
Multi-fractured eye socket, only one good eye.... christ knows what Canelo would have done to him in the next round if it continued. Would have ended horribly.

Bellew has tweeted COYB today as Everton played, nothing on the fight though and Haye has tweeted about online hate today but again nothing about the fight.

There's no more money to be made out of this fight. They'll move on and start pimping the next one. They all want to get paid and be a part of Fury v Joshua. Company men and general arse kissers the lot of them.

When a tennis player "retires injured" due to a hamstring tweak, or a golfer retires from a round due to a bad shoulder, it`s not called quitting
Why then when a boxer who had had his orbital bones fractured into pieces and elects to retire from the fight, is it called quitting?
You can`t, or at least shouldn`t fight on with a fractured eye socket, the risk of permanent damage is very real, even blindness.
Yes, he talks some bollox at times and I get that he is not everyones cup of tea, but the guy has balls, no doubt about that. What he did to Lemieux on his home turf proves that.
Quit? nah, he did the sane thing and looked after his health.

Is it confirmed he has had a fracture? Or just conjecture still.

Just askin' as folks are defending his quitting as being fractured. Maybe BJS just should keep his mouth shut in the future. He's getting what he deserves with all the criticism.

I read that Hearn said it was multiple fractures and will be operated on immediately

he deserves stick for his earlier criticisms of fights who have "quit", but for all the vile things he's done he doesn't deserve to be blind

Hmmm...don't remember anyone saying that. Also no reports on whether he was injured or not. Not yet anyways.

hearn is saying its a triple fracture requiring immediate surgery. i'm not defending him, just affording him the same standard of non-biase afforded to brook/DDD.

LOL! WTF are you talking about? We're all giving BJS exactly what he "afforded" to DDD. Stop yer whining. We don't even know if he's seriously hurt or not. Oh yeah...Father Hearn said so.

His eye was badly damaged after the second round or something, and he fought on for another 7/8 rounds before he couldn't take the pain anymore.

not sure i'm whining.

merely pointing out that whilst he is due some stick, he can't be expected to fight on at the risk of permanent damage (vs the p4p no.1). not sure whats so confrontational about that

Well, you go on being fair, I'll go on lambasteing Saunders. He derseves ALL the stick he is getting. Never wished him harm physically, just laughing at how weak he is emotionally. Another big mouth with nothing to back it up.
