Was Shogun a quitter like Bo?

Shogun is one of my all time favorites, but it bothers me that he has tapped to strikes multiple times. Against Jones he might get a pass because young Bones is on a different level from any other fighter. But I can’t think of any excuse for tapping to strikes against Paul Craig. Fedor didn’t quit while prime TRT Bigfoot was donkey konging him from the mount for a full round. Frank Mir didn’t tap when Shane Carwin had him in prone bone and beat him to within seconds of being the first death in the octagon.

But then I see Bo Nickal looking absolutely bewildered when he gets hit, running around desperately looking for a way out. Shogun never really quit like that.

So which type of quitter is worse? Tapping to strikes or looking for a way out when you could keep fighting?

I really hope one day soon someone dribbles your lifeless carcass off the ground.

If a pro fighter is put in a compromising situation and wants to tap to strikes, that's their prerogative.

You should be banned for fighter bashing
 
you are allowed to quit after 30 fights with stomps and half dead people.. When you went trough your suergery number 11 and the acumulative damage is killing you.

Bo is a apsolute nobody compared to Mauricio. He never took a good shot in that cage and still got knocked out.

Frank Mir ? He was to KOd tot ap vs Carvin. He pretended to be TKOd vs JDS. He wanted out. Which is fine. Since you are making this an America thing. Shogun made Forest tap to strikes. Forest tapped to strikes vs Rashad and waved of the fight vs Anderson. Bet you don´t like that. So what, let people tap. They are tougher than you. And humble.

Would you consider Forest to be mentally weak in these fights?

No but not a stone cold killer like Fedor or Berserker like Wanderlei. He is a pro fighter and champ. It´s beautiful to have the option to opt out. If you want human cockfighting go watch WSSH or something else. MMA are athletes and artists,
 
OP, can you explain the enjoyment you get from posting the dumbest shit possible? Is rustling jimmies really a source of dopamine for you?
Not trolling; it bothers me that Shogun tapped to strikes against Paul Craig
