"WHAT?! Roberto Duran has QUIT!" No Mas, the Fight

It took veteran ring announcer Howard Cosell 12" to grasp it. No one knew what was happening, nor the meaning of it. Duran looked defeated in that eighth round. Sugar Ray Leonard had taunted him, humiliating him, in Round 7 and Roberto had just had enough. The most shocking end to a fight in boxing history. November 25, 1980.
