    Are fan pushing there fighters to the limits?

    After the Corrales aftermath. boxing fans should ask themself are they pushing there fighters to the limits.

    Casamayor won Lamont Pearson by TKO in the 9th and called out Corrales live. Corrales said he wouldnt fight Casamayor because he did not prove himself and there where flaming of messages of fans saying that Corrales is a ducking Casamayor.

    for Castillo it mainly the second time it started and the third time was a blowout. I think because the Magnatiude of the fight Castillo wouldnt say no to the 3rd fight even if concern his own health. There was a lot of entcipation as well as a lot of money in it. What if Castillo said no for Corrales in the third fight it would be a blowout for his fan and he loss many.

    Freitas retired where many people though look at that ***** he even didnt try to avenage his loss against Corrales. from my point of view its better to retire health than someone force you to retire or you brain cell are getting killed.

    Boxing is a dangerous sport with lot of money and corruption please dont make it hard for the fighters as well because at the end of the day people forget them when they are back at the home sitting down with there family and nobody knows them. At the end of the day boxing should take a serouise consideration on changing some of its rules because this is going to be extrme. We dont want another dead or handicapped fighers like the Gman and Johnson. even if you call him a legend or hero but still they are man, father, brothers,husbands..etc that are more important to there family that it is to the fans.

    When Duran lost to Lenord nobody thought good of him even when he won him the first time and was a national hero.

    For us as boxing fan we should make something to make boxing a safer sport. Its not worth dieing for IMO because there is more important things in life.

    How would he be ducking Casamayor if it was made clear that Castillo/Casamayor winner would face Corrales?

      I just heard the part that the Casamayor didnt show himself.

      I am not taking sides and this topic is not about pointing fingers and critizing fighters but its about making think better for boxing as a sport and helpling protect boxers.

      At the end there humans after all and the a breakable emotionally and physicaly.

          but if you come from a bad education background you would make the full potentail of it.

          We alway critize boxers of ducking and cowardness but at the end they are courages enough to reach to this point in there career some deafted and undeafted.

          It better retire when you are already healthy and you got many things going on in your life other than boxing.

            I wish that the fans could see the fighter, having fought valiantly but futiley for the contracted number of rounds. The decision does not go his way, he dresses and leaves the arena sore and swollen, only seeking rest. The next morning he awakes and the world just does not seem in place. Stumbling from the bed the fighter balances himself as he looks at himself in the mirror. He sees his face, some details altered under a purple swell, it looks the same. Yet around him the world does not.

            Later that afternoon as the fighter dressed and made his way to the lobby a group of fans were waiting for his arrival. As he managed his way through the crowd to the reception desk his manager meets him and gives him the warrior embrace. As the manager exits the embrace he notices something in the fighters eyes. A lengthly distance in the fighters eyes as he wobbles slightly in the air. The manager looks closley at the fighter, "Are you o.k champ"? The fighters head tilts slightly upwards as he stands silently, observing his manager in the small circle of light that enters at the end of the distant muffled tunnel.

            It only takes one, the wrong one and the fighter will be altered. Thats probably where the saying "Pick your fights wisely" originated.

              nice story. Is it from your own experince.

              At first I would was critizing fighters fight but now i just pin point there style to see how a could deal with it and learn from them.

              That happened when first I start training a little bit of boxing and though that if this training I could barley fo do what about there training regian.
