Comments Thread For: Lubin: I Could Have Kept Fighting, It's Just a Minor Setback

[Kigali]

you did keep fighting...while you were on the ground

[Kigali]

He was up at 6 right after the ref waved it off. It was similar to Donaire-Montiel where Montiel had a minor seizure after the KD but was still able to get up and fight (albeit only for a few more seconds).

Lubin would have likely staggered face-first into the ropes.

He was open for the shot all night long.
Charlo almost had him about 30 seconds earlier.

Erickson Lubin, you looked like a one-armed paraplegic, trying to swim out of a big bowl of syrup.

damn, beautifully put.

Prob gonna be another 2 years. But he'll be back to win that belt

No he won't....not with that big flat ass head.

It's so big he can barely move it.
He will always be an easy target.

Lubin in no condition to continue fighting..........

Had the fight continued his legs were shaking badly he would have been brutally knocked out and possible career would have been over. He's 22 years old. Fight a few more confidence fights then get back in the mix. However I wouldn't have him fighting for a title anytime soon. He can try again when he's 25 for another title shot by then everyone would have grown out of the division that would have posed a serious threat although I suspect Spence will be in the division in next 3 years. Boxing is a cruel sport.

That shot didn’t look like on the chin. Looked like it hit his neck to me, Lublin leaned into it coukdnt get up. I’ll have to watch it again.

Both Charlo are too big and strong for 154.

it was right on the chin, heres a nice angle

Lubin should retire. That was awful. He's still young enough to go to college.

He's done. Community college will be much more promising for him at this point
