Walters was on his way to getting KO'd and didn't wanna suffer further embarrassment...he cheated Hi-Tech and the Fans out of an exciting KO!...

Still, it's a pity because it could have been a cracking fight if Walters had been active, didn't struggle with weight and took training seriously. Frustrating, but Loma is so good that it might not have mattered.
Still want to see two fighters in their prime at their best rather than one coming off a long lay off, ****ty performances, weight issues etc.

Originally posted by Dr Rumack View PostVery disappointed with Walters. I rarely criticise fighters for retiring but this was different. This is going to overshadow his career until he hangs them up. Lomachenko had a big 7th round but Walters was getting outboxed rather than beaten up. He didn't even do that badly in the 6th.

Boxing is a sport where you are supposed to go out on your shield. Quitting like he did is shameful, it's why Duran is so infamous for the "No Mas."

"It wasn't about quitting," Walters said. "If you look at the last round, he caught me with some pretty good shots, and I was holding on just to survive the round. It would be stupid to come out after that last round." - ...so he went from the Axe Man to the Axe-the-ref-to-stop-the-fight man...

walters has a lot of self relection to do. he just pulled a literal no mas. he needs to work on his redemption story or it's over for him.

Originally posted by Tobi.G View PostI dont get it-all the hate that Walters is getting now. Unlike some other "idiots" he has been smart enough to realise he has no chance against his opponent and its better to stay healthy and not to take unnessecary punishment in a fight you cant win anyway. Some other idiot would continue to fight but he dont because he is smart. He got owned, thats it. Deal with it.
