stop dragging walters name through the mud

really vile comment that is, a new low ^

The man fed tied up animals to his dogs so they would be more vicious for animal fighting...He was a vile piece of human trash who got what he deserved

I like the way you skip the comment exposing you as a hypocrite as usual.

Quitting in boxing is a no-no. It's like a code of honor.

Quitting is fine if you give your all and the fans can see that you've tried your best. When it's blatantly clear that a fighter did not give his best, did not take much damage, and was content to accept defeat by walking away, they should hear about it. Why are you a pro boxer if you're willing to walk away in that big a fight just because you were losing wide?

nah. he need to prove himself again. he is the lowest of the lowest, only thing loweswt is cherry picking ducking like the queen duck F@gweather

When Arum says you are a tough sell, you are in a world of hurt. When a promoter is not willing to promote a boxer or is saying exactly what Arum is saying, dude has a long, uphill battle to get back to relevancy. That is just the boxing landscape through the eyes of a promoter. Rigo is battling the same uphill battle just for different reasons.

No sport will be successful without the fans. The fan base will not support "Joe Blow" for X reasons or "Jane Doe" for Y reasons. The fans base change, the athletes/teams change, the reasons change.

Walters is being crucified right now. Who knows what the future holds, but it don't look good right now.

ah right thats fair enough then, i didnt realise that, animal abuse is the lowest of the low.

He is a bum bro. He was exposed just like Ward, end of. Those are the fights where you either prove yourself or get exposed. Back to District 9 for both of them.

First time that this jack@$$ got ban in this forum.

Rest of his career is forgotten about now then is it? Him demolishing donaire, beating darchinyan, should all be thrown out the window should it?

Why are people so desperate to throw fighters on the scrap heap. Cant people just think, yeah hes not as good as lomachenko, but neither is anyone else around that weight most likely. Seen it with gary russell, guy was prospect of the year, is a top fighter really yet his name never gets mentioned on here, or anywhere really anymore cause he lost. This is part of the reason boxers dont accept hard fights, cause the mentality is if someone loses then they are rubbish. WHy should the guy be vilified for one bad fight?

Yeah he quit, cant praise him for it but does he really deserve the abuse coming his way? Easy for people to moan at him but they werent in his position, he was probably knackered, taking punishment, starting to get a bit of a beating and realised he had run out of ideas, so he called it a night. Some boxers have superhuman levels of courage, like abraham fighting through a broken jaw, some dont. But why should he now be called a coward etc, just cause he wasnt willing to take a beating? Seems like theres no middleground, your either a warrior or a coward.
Its nothing to be proud of but does he really deserve the **** in the media slating him for it, arum saying hes a tough sell, seen many saying they will never watch him again etc.

Think its pretty ****ing unfair that all his other good nights where hes delivered and brought entertainment for everyone is now forgotten about and people are wiping their arse with his name now. Everyone has regrets, he probably now regrets quitting but it shouldnt be a stick to beat him with for the rest of his career. At least he got in their with a top fighter in the first place, thats more than 99 percent of the current boxing roster are doing.

My thing is if you watch the seventh round, Loma had him and he was going for the KO. Of course, there's no reason to think that Walters shouldn't have stayed in and tried to win, but I think Loma just got inside his head. Happens all the time in boxing. Liston basically quit twice against Ali. He wasn't hurt. He just didn't want to be in there with a guy who frustrated him and beat him mentally like that. It's not fun to watch but it is what it is.

Walters literally RAN over to Loma's corner to surrender!

That run to Loma's corner was damning. He should have stayed on his stool in his corner to give some semblance of being hurt. And then he stood there waiting for Loma to come down off the ropes....*cringe*
