Juan Urango is unreachable.

wish him the best

for the ppl wondering about the pig farm thing. Its a decent living if u own a pig farm, urango probably knows hes boxing career is over and hes in danger of gettin seriously hurt if he keeps taking beatings the way he did. If u keep breeding pigs for years and years u can sell the meat for good money in third world countries. Its no different than selling milk, eggs and that stuff. Its the food business, urangos has made a great investment for himself. As long as he dedicated what hes doing he is pretty much set for life.

chris (oklahoma city) Speaking of the 140lb division, what happened to Urango? Is he ever fighting again? I know Ricardo Torres isn't a 140lb fighter anymore, but what happened to him? Has he even fought since losing to Holt? Dan Rafael (12:48 PM) Urango's promoter told me, literally, he bought a pig farm in his home country and has not heard from him in forever and can't reach him. Torres retired. Sounds like a retired fighter to me. Alexander's uppercut may have ended him. Urango looked like dead weight in the Alexander fight. Seemed like at that point of his career he should have been fighting at 147. Unless he always fights like that.

Casamayor was awarded a bicycle for winning the Olympics – he traded it in for a pig, to feed his family. Glad Urango's gone.. watching him fight was nauseating. Slowly plodding forwards, occasionally swinging some wide ass hook. Ugh. Well that makes sense... he was poor in Cuba. Urango probably had some money. Who's life dream is to pig farm?

Torres was reported with some injuries that don't allow him to train properly. He was strongly considering retirement after his last bout that was at 154 He had to pull a KO out in the last round against a guy who has been getting flattened by all 154 prospects, including a first round demolition by Shawn Porter. Probably best that Torres isn't fighting anymore. That Holt KO seemed to ruin his ability to make weight, much like Corrales and Castillo did to one another. The pig farm thing for Urango is one of the weirder things I've heard in my life.

That's a bit disappointing. Torres' retirement was announced a while ago.

if he's done I'm glad I was at his last fight. He should get props for his fights against Hatton and Berto too because they were afraid to box him and held and smothered their way to victory.

giving that bum Alexander credit for it.. smfh... you're such a twat poster its actually funny.

I think it was that Bailey fight that started his decline. Urango was a true warrior though.

no one can recover from getting knocked out by pillow punching alexander in such hilariously devastating fashion.

Based on styles i actually think a vintage Urango would make an even fight with Madaina or Ortiz. But the boxers like Bradley, Alexander and Kahn would always be out of the question, that was his kryptonite. Because of the way he was knocked out in his last fight and since hes been out so long, he may be just about done. He was one of my favorites.

I liked Urango. If he feels that his boxing career is done, I wish him the best. I just hope he doesn't decide to return after a really long lay off.

Yep. Before the Alexander fight Urango seemed to be hitting the the late prime of his career. Urango-Maidana would have been sick. I wish him the best in retirement. I'm glad he got out at the right time. More fighters should call it quits when they start slippin.

good for him... he doesnt pose a threat to the current 140 superstars... panda wouldve liked to see maidana - urango though... Yep. Before the Alexander fight Urango seemed to be hitting the the late prime of his career. Urango-Maidana would have been sick. I wish him the best in retirement.
