    Great to show respect, but the way he quit will never be forgotten

      He should have known he wasn't ready since his last was a shít performance against a gatekeeper a whole year ago.. smh.. He lost the will to fight a long time ago, you could tell before he walked into the ring he was there for the paycheck..

        Hopefully the backlash will fire him up and help him to refocus.

          I just wish he gets back on track soon, I would love to see this fight again, but with Walters staying active and having some good names on his record, then fight again!

It really is frustrating and it ****s with your mind a lot more than getting out punched in exchanges. You could see it on his face...he folded under the pressure, just a different kind of pressure than we are used to seeing.
            Honestly I understand. I'm not even mad at him. He was landing like 3-4 shots a round. No point in getting beat on when you have no hope of winning. Especially when news broke someone just died earlier that week from boxing.

                'Oh well, I knocked out 21 other guys' doesn't seem like the right attitude after a loss.

                He should be concerned about where he goes from here. Remember how Arum did nothing for Clottey after his performance vs Pac? It might be the same, and he's not an appealing opponent to anyone after that performance. Because if Vargas for example fights Walters, anything less than complete domination will be seen as less impressive than Loma, not like there's much money in it, so may as well face someone else. He has a tough road back, feel like we might not see him again until he gets used as an opponent above his best weight in the other guy's hometown.

                  He needs to STFU and think about his future......really really think about it...he needs to decide if he wants to examine if boxing is still for him or just retire.
