      That's pretty honorable and I commented on a thread about the difference in MMA and boxing as far as that attitude. This confirms it, very cool.

        Very respectable move.

        Sometimes you have to save a fighter from themselves and this guy, seeing not only how much damage he was doing to his opponent but also how much his opponent was willing to take for the win, did exactly that.

        Manny should've done this for Margarito.

          how? just take a knee and let Tony win?


          i think Manny DID the closest thing to that by taking his foot off the pedal

              He should've turned his back like Duran or quit on his stool between rounds.

              I'm joking, of course. Still a very selfless gesture by this kid in the video, doe.

                He said he did it because they are amateurs and they aren't getting paid so why risk further damaging his opponent and possibly sending him to the hospital when it's only an amateur fight.

                  yea...its refreshing to see sportsmanship in this day and age


                  i know you're not into hockey but one of the best things for me is seeing the handshake between teams after a playoff series...they go out there and try to take each other's heads off but once its all done, they shake hands like men

                    Pretty amazing and i was more in awe of his statement on why he did it.

                    They amatuers and they not getting paid for this and he knew the only way it would have ended was the going going to the hospital and its not worth it so he tapped out and give him the win.
