    For the last few years I've noticed that once a fighter loses for the first time, all of sudden he is exposed and done for. Really? When did this become the standard? Prime example is Canelo Alvarez. When Floyd beat him everybody was saying he was exposed and no good. The kid wasn't even 25 when he fought against the best boxer in the world. Can some of you guys on here let me know what you think.
    I can use your example to refute what you are saying. Look at Canelo, lost to Floyd but is headlining the second biggest PPV of the year and is going to make 10 mil plus. THE FANS may claim he was exposed bout how is it a "career ender" when you are back headlining events and making millions of dollars.

    Look at Lucas, Broner, Froch, Degale, Porter, hell look at PAULIE. Multiple losses but still making good money. I disagree with the entire premise of this thread. What you said and what you are claiming are two different things.

      This has never really been true. Sure, a loss can kill hype and momentum, but you can always regain it.

      Canelo is fighting in the biggest fight in boxing not involving Floyd or Pacquiao.

      Hell, Pacquiao got KTFO by JMM and that didn't really matter.

          I'm not claiming anything. I'm just going off what folks have said in response of fighters being labeled as exposed or done after just receiving one loss. You're taking what I wrote out of context. I never said a fighter is done after one loss, I said that's what folks are saying nowadays.
