Fair play to Billy Joe Saunders. He was the first to admit he stunk the place out when he made his first title defence of his WBO Middleweight crown and there's something to admire in that.

Many a fighter has quit, it is not a new thing, and we have no problem with it as fighter safety is paramount. However, the manor in which a fighter quits matters.
