Comments Thread For: Leo Santa Cruz Makes No Excuses, Unsure of His Boxing Future

Good fighter.


If he retires God bless.


He knows when to hang them up.

[whollisboxing]

These words reveal that, mentally speaking, he already retired.

Good for Leo if he resists the urge to come back. To paraphrase a famous poet, "it's not in his guts anymore".

I agree, and he fights with a style that requires 100% commitment. He should definitely take his time making a decision and if he's still thinking about retirement in six months then he will have his answer.

Great credit to both fighters, a real exciting fight. A highlight reel knockout, truly sensational. Leo was a champion, and he's got a big heart. God bless him wheher he carries on boxing or not.

Ironically, this is the best “win” in Tanks career Not that it really did much for Tank since this is what was supposed to happen with a largely ineffective puncher since arriving at 26.

I’ve always been huge on Tank and probably always will be, but he’s been fighting no hopers for a minute.

Tank has been a champ for about 4 years now. Let that sink in. Avoided Loma and has managed to fight zero other champs. Refused the Farmer fights iirc. Berchelt’s name never comes up.

I think he beats all these guys btw minus Loma but it’s getting old.

Yeah I see him feasting on the same type of fighter for the next couple of years. Fight on Mexican holidays against smaller Mexicans and make it PPV so you can be the bad guy.

Sound familiar?

I hope the best for Leo and his family. But let's be real, LSC was not a good look for Boxing. Probably the weakest 4 division champ in the history of boxing. There's a reason he was an 8 to 1 underdog. He was managed very fragily throughout his career, big props to Al Haymon for that.

[steeve steel]

The fact is he cashed out, already thinking of retirement, and was looking for the biggest payday just before ending his career, thus this fight he knew he couldn't win.

True Hofr and a class act all around, aas whooping tanks ass jus got careless

[BoxingIsGreat]

Cruz can fight Loma next, the losers from that tourney. Tune up on each other.

No shame in retiring Leo. You had a good career regardless of what some people say. I wish more fighters were honest and humble after such a vicious defeat. Leo has a lot of character. We need more people like him in boxing. All the best to Leo Santa Cruz and best of health to him, his family and especially Papa Santa Cruz.
