Should Lamon Brewster retire ?

He took a hard fight with no warm up. He got paid big money and quit on his stool. Time to retire.

brewster I couldn't agree any more lamon should have taken a tune-up fight he took a lot of shots in this fight but, lamon said before the fight that if it would be a boxing match that he would lose but, if he could turn it into a brawling match the fight belong to him. He done right the opposite and look what happened I'm not a brewster fan by no means but he made no excuses after the fight he was man enough to admit that he got beat.

he made a shitload of money, he can retire now and be happy into retirement if he doesn't waste what he has made. precisely. He honestly should've stayed retired last year after suffering a detached retina. This fight was a nice cashout opportunity for him (and his family), so he took it. Regardless of how much fight he may or may not have in him, I don't think it's worth it for him to find out.

I don't think he should retire. he just made a mistake in fighting Klitschko for his title after being off a year. I think he should work his way back before going after a belt.

I think he still has alot left in him!!!

maybe have him fight a top 15 type guy and see how he does before making a decision like that.

I'd love to see him fight Calvin Brock for his next fight.

How much did he make in the Klitschko fight? I don't know if he should retire, I think if he comes in form he can still be great to watch...but his reputation has definetly been tarnished because he quit so early in his fight with Klitschko so not sure how many more people would want to pay to see him fight.

I think James Toney vs Brewster would be interesting. 2 good chins and one good knockout boxer.

He shouldnt retire, his biggest mistake was trying to take on the #1 ranked HW after being out of the ring for so long he should of had at least 1 warm up fight against someone like Zuri Lawrence. His handlers through him right into the fire instead of easing him back into it.

no i dont think he should retire he was not ready for this rematch and when he comes back i hope that he take a slower road back up to the top at least have two warm up fights That's funny. Most Brewster fans (I'm a Brewster fan, but not one of these) were saying that the layoff (well over a year) was good for him, and that he was 110% ready for this fight, and that there was no way he was going to lose. I remember one person who claimed to be in Brewster's camp saying that very thing (some girl, I think).

He had 17 months off, then went into the ring with the recognized heavyweight champion of the world, and made it further than Wlad's last opponent did... Brewster is an exciting fighter and whether he ever holds a belt again, I want to see him in the ring again

hes not shot but he should retire simply because hes not willing to fight the only style that would allow him to be champ... lamon brewster is not a "boxer" and nobody short of jesus christ is gonna turn him into one

Honestly guys, he didn't look shot. He looked exactly the same as he did at the start of his first fight with Klitschko. If anything he looked a bit better because he was able to get in a bit of head movement and body punching despite the fact that he was dominated. The only different between this fight and the first one is that in this one Klitschko didn't punch himself out and collapse from exhaustion. Larry Merchant was saying we didn't see the same relentless Lamon that we saw in the first fight. I disagree. We saw exactly the same Lamon but with a much smarter and more relaxed version of Wladimir in front of him.

why do Buddy McGirt fighters keep loosing? :owned: Haha...McGirt is like the black Tiki doll from that Brady Bunch episode...lol...bad luck. Lets see how Brewster looks after a tune-up fight and gits his bearings back. If he quits on his stool again...I'de say itsa wrap.

If he needs the money then I guess he should keep fighting, but he even said that he didn't want to fight the way he did before. That's why he went to Buddy McGirt. So some of that passion might be gone and in turn it might be time to hang up the gloves.

He put the LAME in Lamont. Just retire already! He got beat by one punch: the jab!

no i dont think he should retire he was not ready for this rematch and when he comes back i hope that he take a slower road back up to the top at least have two warm up fights

i don't think he will retire, but i also don't see him ever getting another crack at a belt, unless one of the other champs picks him as an "easy defence" and name on their record. i reckon he'll get used to test out one or two of the american prospects out there like chambers or arreola, and retire after 3 or 4 more fights.
