Comments Thread For: Zou Shiming: I Don't Rule Out Retirement, But I Don't Want To Go

Shiming was never Loma or Rigo. He had good amateur skills but in his early pro fights it was evident he wasn't able to make the transition to the pro game, and it was always a matter of time before that was exposed, be it by the Japanese guy or any number of other solid pros. Loma and Rigo made the transition (maybe debatable with Rigo), but both Loma and Rigo are/were far more talented than Shiming, so no surprises here folks. How is it debatable for Rigo when Loma is the one who got the classic definition of a "pro style" beating?

There's some conspiracy here against Arum by school teachers and restaurant workers. I smell a ...... muffin here, with beer & a new textbook.

There are 2 time gold medal winners like Loma and rigo, and then there's this guy who lost to a bus boy from Ihop Shiming was never Loma or Rigo.

The fact that he couldn't record his first KO until his 4th fight against debut level fighters was a huge warning sign this guy didn't have the goods He was completely dominating Kimura till round 10. however, Kimura just kept coming forward and caught him with good punches in Rd 11.

The greatest flyweight of our time.. He had a great run for how long it lasted. Time to hang them up champ, you've done enough for the sport of boxing.

guy lost to a part time restaurant worker??

He may expect more of the same if he continues to fight the tough Japanese guys... he was rather protected early in his career when he first turned Pro ...

its sad, seeing Zhou getting blasted. also a reminder that amateur and professional are two DIFFERENT beasts

I hope Zou sticks around, just to see him get knocked out again... LOL

I suspect we will hear a similar speech from loma if he ever faces rigo or steps up to mikey.
