"I just wanted to get out and go to the toilet," said former WBA welterweight champion Andrew "Six-Heads" Lewis after suddenly quiting midway through a bout he was winning on Saturday at the National Park in Georgetown, Guyana. Lewis was ahead on all three judges' cards when he shockingly surrendered 37 seconds into round seven against Denny Dalton. Lewis later revealed to Stabroek Sport, "I preferred to lose the fight than mess up myself in front of all those people. Everyone saw that I was beating the hell out of Dalton. I was trying to hold in this stuff but in the seventh round I couldn't no more so I decided to quit." Lewis attributed his troubles to a milkshake he drank that afternoon. The Guyana Boxing Board of Control has withheld Lewis' purse pending an investigation. He is facing a possible fine or suspension.
I read this entire thing wrong. Now that I see this, wow. I would have done the same thing. Nothing worse than possibly taking a shot in the gut and letting go.
SwampRocker literally just put me on the floor, almost woke my daughter up. Her bedroom is right above my office and I just blew a gasket, funniest thing I read in a while.
well I'm one of those guys that can only shit at home. I can't shit at an arena. therefore, even with the strongest urge, I would hold that shit in till the end of the night.
then again, we still need to know what was in that milkshake.
I'd quit too. I mean, c'mon. Crapping yourself is enough to take your head out of the fight. Its gonna' get all over the ring... stop thinking about it*stop thinking about it*stop thinking about it*stop thinking about it*stop thinking about it
