ANNOUNCEMENT TO PROS: A Loss does NOT ruin your career

[Loque-san]

to be fair, those guys have shown mental damage after their losses. donaire was behind on the cards vs vic darchinyan and mares is ducking jhonny and miura.

someone like broner can bounce back. he showed warrior heart in that fight and wanted a rematch.

Mares is not ducking Miura. He simply decided not to move up in weight. It was a wise decision, he would be too small at 130.

there have been countless examples in boxing history where a loss has enhanced a fighter's legacy.

A loss doesn't enhance a fighter's legacy directly. But it can enhance a fighter's legacy indirectly behind the scenes. The loss can show that fighter his weaknesses, and he can then fix those weaknesses. So now the fighter is even better than before.

A loss is a bad thing in itself, but it can be turned into a positive. Not many people do that though, not just in boxing, but in life.

according to posters here when a fighter loses,they were exposed,a hypejob or they are shot

Pretty much this. Between promoters who drop a fighter after a single loss and fans with zero long term memory, no wonder fighters are desperate to keep their 0 intact.
