Should Rosado call it a day? POLL

I will admit, hit list of opponents is impressive. It's a murderers row at that weight right now. But he used to post pics to Twitter and Instagram showing his training. I remember one where he was touting heavy bag work out in Instagram. Only in the pic, he was hitting the bag wearing unlaced chuck taylors. If he took training more serious and his manager stopped feeding him to the wolves and actually allowed him to improve (through more disciplined training), he could be a force instead of a barometer.

In Rosado you sometimes see flashes of Gatti, however, his offensive output is very lacking at times. He doesn't let his hands go enough. He had Lemieux buzzed several times but he failed to follow up. Yeah he did seem to have Lemieux looking vulnerable a couple times, but he would let up when Lemieux started throwing back that left hook.

Rosado is like a poor man's Arturo Gatti. Exciting, tons of heart and some boxing ability. The problem is he has a fragile face and it is almost harder to miss him with punches than hit him with them and he does not have the power to win a fire fight at least against a guys that really bring it. Although maybe the better comparison for Rosado is to Ward, who was never able to really take it to the next rung like Gatti was able to do at time.

I like Rosado's blood 'n guts warrior-esche attitude and he's given fans exciting fights but, yeah, I agree that he needs to step back and make some hard choices because his style does not lend itself to a healthy being. I'm hoping that Gabe has been smart with his finances and has set aside some of his winnings, so that he can live comfortably without having to play gatekeeper for the indefinite future.

Yes. He should retire.

He is a good action fighter with heart but his eyes will not let him win. He shouldn't be taking that type of damage because he is not doing million dollar purses It has been too many fights all ready with those eyes failing him in the fight and sometimes really early in the fight

Rosado has been fighting top-notch competition, so maybe this proves he's just not on the "Elite" or "A-level". Most fighters say they want to fight the best and the toughest, while Rosado has actually been doing that. No one has GGG/Quillin/Lemieux on their record afaik. He continues to get these opportunities because he loses well; he's becoming a litmus test. It doesn't mean he should stop fighting, but that he needs to be matched up more carefully if GBP and his manager want to preserve Rosado's career. Who Rosado should be fighting imo: Kirkland, Angulo, Stevens, Rubio, Saunders, Truax, Macklin.

If he retires, I think I'll feel a bit sad that he did. Definitely way more exciting fighter than most of the pu$$ies out there, has a ton of heart too...but bad luck when it comes to cuts/swellings etc..

He needs a break.

I swear I knew the fight would play just the way it did. Just seen the replay of it now.

He hasn't beat anyone inside a boxing ring in two years. And his excuses after every loss smh he cant beat bundrage, or ishe smith??? how bout angulo in a rematch? how bout trout or maybe even vanes? how bout mundine??:lol1: thats not most?? geez:pat:

He took a savage beating tonight, how he went out on he feet is beyond me and he is a tough dude. I don't know if Rosado should retire, but I know the guy should take 1 year off from punishing his body. Stay in solid shape, stay clean, pick up some money calling fights or acting whatever. I can't say he should take soft touches because that is still damage his body would be taking and when he comes up tough again it could be worse. Pretty much this. Pretty sure I heard lampley say he had plastic surgery to fix the skin around his eye. Didn't seem to help, his skin is shot, he needs the rest.

His last wins of any note were against sechew Powell and soto-Karass. So when it's said he can beat most at 54 and 60, it's just not true. oh man...:pat:

Why do people keep picking this guy to win fights? lol

no, i think he is a good fighter and can beat most fighters out there from 54-60... if he can drop down to 54 i think he can pick up a belt from bundrage. He hasn't beat anyone inside a boxing ring in two years. And his excuses after every loss smh

Well I am concerned, because he usually tweets very soon after a fight that he did his best etc. This time he hasn't, probably because he does not know which of the 3 smartphones to pick up.
