    after that war lucas got KO'd by postol and ruslan lost to fucking molina jr (a guy that gave lucas a helluva fight but ultimately got destroyed) in a fight most believed molina was gonna get brutalize.

    lucas and ruslan, great warriors, love them to dead
    Yeah Molina beating Ruslan was a big shock, but wasnt Lucas's eye a result from the Garcia fight tho? i always assumed it was the same eye..

He had his licence taken away, even though he swear he was fine etc But he has swellings in the brain.

      He was then scrapping for money to feed his young two wons (Doesn't one of them (Akeem jr) play football in america now? Last time i checked). Which lead to him dabbling in selling drugs in Vegas, getting caught and deported to Nigeria.

      It was whilst in Nigeria that he had two or three fights, collapse after one of the fights in the shower and passed away from there. He definitely had a couple of fights from my research.

      Even sad was Roberto's own demons and him getting shot later on.
      I believe he got arrested with long time featherweight contender Jose caba.

          I don't think you guys know what the word "ruined" means.

          You guys are naming guys who continued to win titles and huge fights afterwards.

          Now, the Gatti/Ward trilogy left both of them with horrific damage.

          Castillo/Corrales is another one where I think both guys weren't the same afterwards

              Brian Sutherland/Kenny Rainford.

              Brian got knocked out and never fought again and Rainford only fought 2 more times after that and then retired and blew the rest of his career earnings on off brand oxycontin.

                  it was a different eye vs postol i think. lucas complained about a head-butt a round or two before the KO. lucas career ending was weird. he proved to be a warrior vs garcia, molina jr and provo yet he quit vs postol who imo a prime lucas (or a semi decent lucas) should've beaten to a pulp. and then again vs manny showing up like crap.
