Teddy Atlas: “A boxer has to learn the difference between the truth and a lie. The lie is thinking that a submission is an acceptable option. The truth is that if you give up, afterward you realize that any of those punches you thought you couldn't take or those rough moments you thought you couldn't make it through, were just moments. Enduring them is not nearly as tough as having to deal with the next day, the next month and the next year, knowing that you quit, that you failed, that you submitted.”
