It isn't because you lost a couple of exchanges and had some takedown attempts stuffed that you should give up on those things. Ryo Chonan was getting annihalated before he got Anderson Silva in that heel lock. He didnt quit, he just kept trying and he got lucky. The fact remains that you quit on the fight, and that is not in the spirit of competition.

If by annihalated you mean Chonan punishing Anderson with leg kicks, getting takedowns, controlling Anderson on the ground (minus the first 1/2 of the first round where Anderson had his back), working GNP, and even getting the better of a couple of exchanges, then sure, he was getting "annihalated."
BTW, yes I did see Croatia_K1's post which is what made me look for yours
