  • Ricardo Torres retired.

    D$ - Whatever happened to Ricardo Torres?

    Back in Colombia and done fighting. I actually spoke to Miguel Diaz this week. He was in Torres' corner and I asked him about Torres. He said he's retired.

    I like reading his chat.

    Just pointing out the interesting stuff.

    That's crazy, why would he do that so young?

        His last fight was at 154, he's a career 140 pounder. He wasn't taking boxing serious anymore, he pulled out of the Holt trilogy due to weight problems. For whatever reason he lost his hunger to box. He is still young, I don't know what he's going to do for a living.

          I think the combination of that headbutt and massive followup punch from Holt retired him.

          That was one of the most brutal shots I've ever seen landed on a guy.

          Shame too, Torres was a bad ass fighter.

          Go in peace champion and thanks for all the classic fights you gave us.

            They usually come back, but he might have a hard time with getting knocked out after having fighters down like he did against Cotto and Holt.

                That headbutt and knockout against Holt ruined him. Shame because he could have made the 140 division even more interesting right now
