Can he get 2 tune up fights and be back in contention for a title?
Or will that uppercut haunt him forever?
I read one poster say that he needs to take a year off, get 2 tune ups in 2019, then get in the mix again in 2020.
Jesus.
Jermell knocked him 3 years in the future. (from the fight in 2017, to fighting for a title in 2020)
To a whole new decade.
He needs to start looking for a job as a cashier at walmart or something.
Yeah, it's retirement for him at this point. He'll never be the same, just hang em up and work a 9-5.
he was exposed, simple as that. first fight at a higher level and he couldnt last a round. Its over for him at that level.
seriously, you outdo yourself with every post. you are a legit retard
not like he quit like "next superstar" ohara davies to a guy with 9 fights
Well we shall see, I totally disagree! It was "Over" for Daniel Jacobs after Pirog knocked him out and for Sadam Ali when Jesse Vargas stopped :dunno: so fans have a very long track record of being wrong and not knowing **** particularly on this forum :lol1: Just Saying...
Casual Fans who jump from bandwagon to bandwagon, of course on this forum people will say "HE IS DONE" at 22 years old
I think the loss to Pirog set Jacobs' career back a few years. Many people cited the personal circumstances in Jacobs life for why he lost. Who knows what would've happened if his mind was "right." Sadam Ali was lucky to get a championship fight so soon after a tough loss. He made the best of it against an injured Cotto. Anything can happen with Lubin but the way he lost, especially in his first step up fight and knowing that the guy that beat him will probably be there again. It's hard to imagine he comes back and beat the same guy who is a fairly young himself. I don't write him totally but ai can't agree he'll be alright without seeing how bounce back in his first fight. You could probably say the same thing about Julian Williams.
Yeah, but Lewis had no business getting stopped by a journeyman. Lubin got stopped by someone who could beat him again. Not to mention there are other boxers in the division that could beat him. His future doesn't look bright considering who he'll have to face once he gets back on track.

Lubin is a super talent. Maybe have problems about his chin. In the elite without a great chin is imposible to succes. But, we dont now about his chin yet. The are lot of examples of fighthers that at the beginin seems to have the amir khans chin and at then end up having a great one!! Lubin still being a young super talent prospect!! Just give him time.
This thread is what boxing has become and people cry about nobody watching. Hardcore fans are swearing off a 22 year old fighter with one loss in a championship fight.

Lubin's young and talented, hopefully he'll be back. The problem is a first round knockout like he suffered makes a guy start thinking about keeping his hands at home, and a puncher like Lubin has to let his hands go .
With a chin like his he definitely need to keep his hands at home more.
If he is ok mentally then he needs to get back in right away. He didn’t take a beating. He took a shot to the temple. He wasn’t or didn’t take a prolong beating like Jeff Lacy took against Joe calzaghe.
I compare it to when Oliver McCall Sparked a young Lennox Lewis, it is very similar actually:

I think Lubin will be fine, he got caught in a vulnerable position where he and most thought it was no way he would get clipped being that low but 100% Credit to Jermell Charlo
Lubin will be fine, I think he works his way back and become Champion but he has to really get active, fight 3-4 times this year then look to step up again maybe 2019. Even when you dip that low protect yourself, don't assume the ref will jump in quickly or that you can't be hit when you're that low.

It is NO WAY you expect a punch to land when you're this low so he let his guard down. Should've dipped and quickly came back up with a Clinch but instead he stayed down their. Lesson Learned!

It depends on his mentality and character. If he rationalizes it by thinking he was too young, too early for such a big fight and that he was simply caught and that it was to the top guy, and feels he can get bounce back and has a positive outlook, then sure he can have a career. His return fight may tell us where he is mentally.

What happened to Erickson Lubin is the type of thing that happens when you play dueling pistols at the elite level between two prime fighters. He's gonna be alright.
Will take the time off that he needs, come back for 2-3 fights (to make sure that everything is okay), get lined up for another final eliminator, and take another shot at the top.
Lubin is still young i think with the loss Lubin becomes a monster nothing makes a fighter want it more than a loss. I see boxing golden age beginning in 2020 legends a plenty.
