Comments Thread For: Jeison Rosario: Time To Say Goodbye, I'm Not Fighting Anymore, Time To Retire

Good for him to realize before something bad happens.

Hopefully he made good money

Peace to another warrior who had a decent career. Rosario did well for himself. No shame in knowing when to hang the gloves up. Just hope he took care of his money so that he doesnt have to come back in the future for a payday. Once again, much respect.

I saw Lubin in the audience and most likely rooting for Rosario.

Yeah, that's how it is. All fighters want to see the guys they fought do good things after the fight. It makes their resumes look legit.

This guy knows he has peaked. It's all down from here. Like when Prince Naseem retired after Barrera took him through school and college, knowing, that if he fights the real elites, he has nothing but another 6-7-8 losses coming. Prince retired early, healthy, and can now look back on his wins over the likes of Billy Hardy. Cash in

Hamed himself is on record saying that retiring when he did was a mistake and he should have just taken a brief break to recover and came back.

If Hamed had stayed in the game, the whole scope would have been way different. He dominated the last guy he fought and he would have drawn MAJOR money even when losing.

Remember, Mayorga was still drawing money despite losses.

He could have made major money, but he knew. He can say what he wants after the event, but it was a man vs a boy vs he faced Barrera. Cash in

Jeison Rosario your decision to retire is the best thing that you can do for your health.

He probably could have benefited from "milking" the belts a bit. In retrospect, Haymon/his team did him wrong throwing him to Charlo right after his win over J-Rock and right back to Lubin after.

[SweetPbfAli]

The way he reacted from that jab to the stomach from Jermell was enough for me. Did we ever get an actual explanation for that?

[Slip jab]

Yeah but where does he go really hell just become fodder for these up an coming fighters at 54/60 the guy has big glaring weakness that don't seem to be getting fixed I mean he's only 27 he won 2 world titles so it might not be the right move to be getting beaten up an knocked out by these guys coming through

I agree but with careful matchmaking he can do something. Imagine if haymon protected him like charlo or Spence. , I’d welcome HBO coming back to resuscitate an identical agenda but applied to white fighters like haymon treat’s black fighters
