How is a punk ass commission gonna keep a man from earning a living??
I agree he should retire cause he's a joke now but if he wants to keep fighting and promoters keep paying him to fight well then who are we to keep him from fattening up his pockets??

I understand what you're saying but at the same time if the boxing commissions really cared about a boxer's well being then they would create some type of retirement plan so that fighters don't have to keep fighting forever just to get money.
The NBA, MLB, and NFL has a retirement plan for the players so why not boxing?
Retired players like O.J Simpson still collect a paycheck to this day so the commissions of boxing should do the same for the fighters.

Boxing is not NBA, boxer can fight once a year and NBA players gonna play 50 times a year. It's a different sport, boxing is very unpredictable.

He may want to fight but he shows virtually nothing and the Commission should band him for his own good and well they're doing that they could also do it to Margarito 4 is high and Angullo with no skill left...

The problem is that Mayorga is not even trying to get in shape to be able to have a respectable boxing fight. He shows up to a fight just to get paid.
