I see your point, but I disagree with it on several fundamental levels. In his case due to the Gracie 'rule' his reason for not tapping is probably the -dishonour- of doing so rather than the supposed honor of allowing the arm to break. The level of discipline could also be motivated by this fear of dishonour.
Regarding its relevance to this situation, well I'll discredit that from your new angle: It would be dishonourable for him to lose to Shamrock.

Your right it is pointless to repeat myself when I'm not going to get an answer. Renzo was obviously motivated to quit a fight he was winning. I did read one arguement from someone about how a broken arm hurts more than a concusion (which is true) but it's easier to fight with one good arm than without the propper motor skills which are affected by a concusion. I'm sure it's been said already, but how does Shamrock cheat and Renzo's honor gets challenged?
