Walters, what the...........!?????

[The Akbar One]

Walters went in there and pulled a Clottey, except he quit on top of it. That was some real ****ery. Walters mannerisms and body language were negative from the start of the fight. Like he was scared. Doesn't seem like him to just quit, that whole fight didn't seem like him. The lack of 100% effort is what bothers me the most. Donaire hit him harder in the second round of their fight, then Loma did at any point last night. Walters reacted much differently though. Last night he fought like someone with a gun would be waiting for him in his dressing room, if he put up any resistance.

I don't think he ever wanted to fight Loma but Arum forced him into it somehow. Even back in 2014, IIRC, he made statements about facing Loma that didn't sound promising. Then he got into the ring and Loma took away all of his favourite weapons, never let him set his feet and was starting to clown on him, and he just imploded

That's a bunch of BS! The gun that was waiting for him was across the ring staring at him. Just because Donaire hit him harder in one sequence doesn't mean SHT and doesn't mean Walters wasn't more hurt to the body by Lom. Walters was able to hit back against Donaire and unable to hit Lom or block his punches. 90% of the game is mental and Lom broke him mentally, took away his game plan and dismantled him. Drop the bullsht ***ery conspiracy theory, it is a failed escapism mentality.

Walters wasn't ever hurt last night. He quit after not even putting in a 100% effort.

He was broken mentally fool! GTFO with your lame escapism crap! This game is 90% mental and Walters knew NOTHING he did worked and was broken mentally. ANYONE who has taken psychology in college or even has a basic social understanding could see this! This is not the first time it has happened to a fighter.

When you throw everything you have and can't land a single thing and start getting hit at will I gotta think it's gonna make you start doubting yourself. Walters just has no heart and quit instead of taking his beating like a man.

Walters was hurt mantally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, and probably even sexualy..

I don't think I have ever seen a fighter hurt in so many different ways.

WAR LOMACHENKO

A fighter black balled and sat on the shelf for a year by his promoter, won't have the proper mind state, timing or rhythm to fight a top echelon opponent. Walters didn't even put in a 100% effort. It is what it is.

He was sat on the shelf by Arum as punishment for not taking the purse for the fight the first time. His contract was up, if I recall. Not sure why he went back to Top Rank. He was done dirty, to be sat out for a year, and then put in to be a showcase opponent for Lomachenko.

Lom is the superior fighter and proved it by winning every minute of every round. Live with it.
