WelshDevilRob Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 He got stopped in the 10th round by Viktor Postol on Saturday. Plenty saying that he Quit. What did you think of the ending and did he quit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerald Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Re: Did Matthysse Quit? He admitted himself in the HBO post fight interview that he could have got up but didn't - he said (via translator) he felt a 'pop' in his eye and wanted to protect his wellbeing. No shame in that in my view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonRingRules Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Re: Did Matthysse Quit? --- He quit because he felt his eye go out on him, no different than retiring on your stool after a terrible beating. I don't begrudge him after getting the shaft against Judah and Alexander. We'll see where he goes from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoztheMadman Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Re: Did Matthysse Quit? That shot sure didn't look hard enough to stop him right there and then. It looked like he quit to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 Re: Did Matthysse Quit? I was surprised he didn't get up but he has said he heard something pop in his eye and couldn't see. He's been in some tough fights, so I believe him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selij Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Re: Did Matthysse Quit? What did you think of the ending and did he quit? Yes, he more than likely did but there's certainly no shame in it. Obviously felt something was dangerously wrong. No doubt we will get a statement in due course. Haven't seen anything official from the Matthysse camp as yet on this.
