    I am a big fan of Bojado, and hope he eventually comes back. I too have been wondering for a long time what happened to him. I am glad somebody finally posted this thread, but it seems that nobody has heard anyhting from him. I beleive that he still has amazing potential, and could still someday be a dominant figure in boxing. He's still very young and this experience could be the best thing that ever happened to him.

    im a big fan of fighters who can move and punch like he does, so i had to say something.

      He was a little too successful & hyped at a very young age.
      Even before he lost to Rubio, you could see the only fire in his gut was acid indigestion.

      His own overconfidence lead to his loss...which, in turn, caused him to be under-confident.

      I blame it on his association with Fernando Vargas, ha-ha.

            He's been sampling the delights at Burger King and is coming back as a heavyweight.

            Seriously, he was way overhyped and pushed ahead too fast.

              bojado

              i dont know what happened to bojado i mean i scored the leija fight for him by one point. sure it could have gone either way and yes he should have destroyed him but i mean what was he 19-20 then? so he has time to come back still and i really hope he does, his talent is very high.

              he was my fav olympian back when they all first started.

                Bojado plain and simple was a media creation!

                Watching showtime try and pump this kid up always cracked me up, they would talk about how the 17 year kid had such awesome power and then you would watch his highlights and they were littered with guys who were getting ko'd by arm punches!

                I thought he was way ovverated way before I knew he hated to train, plus I have no clue how much money he got as a signing bonus.

                Dangerous thing to pay a guy before he is the man, look at Ricardo Williams.

                I like Bojado's style under Floyd Sr. but the thing people need to realize is that he is not a puncher and he never was.
