re
Dempsey destroys Quitschko, who never really proved anything in the ring other than he would quit when the going got really tough, in rather quick fashion, which I know some of his fans like to bring up the Lewis bout, but that was stopped in what the sixth round...imagine if he would have had to actually gut it out for eight, or nine rounds and even though it was only six rounds it was pretty obvious that Klit was looking for a way out as is pretty evident from his manners and motions following every round aftrer Lewis took over the fight around the third round. If it had continued Quitschko would have showed the same kind of heart that he did against Byrd and if Lewis did not actually knock him out then he would likely have quit in the next couple of rounds! Quitschko might make the top 50 for some, but for me he never proved anything that would have even made him a champion...much less an all-time great...which he most certainly was not!
