Lucas life after Postol defeat

[Redd Foxx]

That's one of the reasons he doesn't wanna change trainners and team. He cares more about affection to his relative ones.

Sometimes, that's the most important thing. I've had various trainers both in sport and in the arts and the best ones for me weren't the most achieved or successful, they were the ones who I connected with. I better understood what they were saying and why. Not everyone works that way but some of us do.

People can slag on him saying that he needs to do this or that, but the fact remains that he's still a very high level boxer and has achieved more than most boxers ever will. Even if you're "only" #5 in the world in your division, you're still above 99.9% of the professional boxers out there.

i was told that his wife/girlfriend stole his passport before the peterson fight and that is why he arrived to the US like a day or 2 before the fight.

why the hell would she do that?

Lucas is a cool guy, he knocked out my first trainer, he told me he hit like a mule, i send him a friend request in facebook and is always putting some photos with his daughter and family, his orthography is awful but it's clear that's him and not some random person with an account with his name.

tone of this thread makes it seem like the Lucas defeat was life threatening or something lol.

Relax, it's just a loss.

I know. It's because people tend to think... "what is this guy doing?" after almost one year outside the ring and with no news of him coming back or training.

Or maybe if someone just felt curious about it.

Lucas has always sounded like boxing was more a profession than a real passion of his. He's talked about retirement for years. He likes being around his family.

Great thread, feels good to see Lucas living happy and well. I just heard earlier this week his eye injuries from the Provodnikov & Postal fights might be permanent. I hope for his sake he retires and lives the good the life, he earned it.
