It wasn't that ortiz quit to me, it was that "I don't deserve to be getting beat up like this" remark. I thought it was such a bitch thing to say because it's like, boxing is cool as long as it's not a tough fight. He was knocking fools out and basically to me, he's saying it's cool if he hurts people but he doesn't wanna get hurt.
I'm fine with quitting the fight. You win some, you lose some. That last right hand he ate against the ropes that snapped his head all the way back was basically the end of the fight to me.
I thought Lopez's corner should've seriously considered stopping the fight against Salido and never did. He might be ruined now. They're lucky it stopped when it did because he was taking thudding shots for 3 rounds after the big knock down. He could've been Meldrick Taylor-like if he kept that up. Better to live and fight another day.
