I've watched the news from ABS-CBN (TV Channel in the Philippines) that Boom boom BAutista is planning to retire from boxing at this early stage of his boxing career because of that loss he suffered from de leon.Is this really true? What a pity if he does plan to retire....
wheres the link man.. but if this is indeed true, i would call boomboom a coward and a punk. nobody retires from boxing just coz u lost once.. especially if your just 21 years old and you didnt suffer any injuries.
sorry man. i just heard the news from a tv station. am looking for the written news but haven't found one yet. maybe, tomorrow they will post it in their web site. nevertheless, if this is true, Boom boom is really badly damaged.... psychologically.
again, if this is true, then maybe he need to look at himself and the mirror and ask if he should really retire after one loss to one of the best, maybe p4p top 15.Quote:

It would be an entirely different story if he didn't stand a chance against anyone else at that weight,
but the fact is he could still be a force at 122 and has time on his side especially at a mere 21 years
old. I will be very dissapointed in Rey if he retires now.
he won't do it
I don't think he'll do it. The guy is bummed out obviously, he got destroyed in the first round, thats never good for a guys confidence. But the guy is 20-21 years old. He's still a baby, he's got a lot of better times ahead of him if he sticks with it. He'll come around.
Well I mean you haft to understand he probley train his fucken ass off for a fight this big, he had to for the fact he was finally getting a title shot to become the world champion against Daniel Ponce De Leon who proved he is a hard hitter many times before.
Rey confidence really broke down if he’s planning to retire at such a young age. Putting yourself in his shoes he must feel real devastated and can not think at the moment. Right now he just needs to let this slide by for a week or two. Think to himself if he really wants to keep going in this sport cuss the kid is good no doubt. I mean it was a major loss but I mean there is no shame losing to Daniel Ponce De Leon. So don’t just call Rey a punk or a coward cuss that’s bull. It was a confidence breaker and what he needs is to just sit and think.
Agreed. He's just embarrassed.Quote:

If he does i dont think it would be the loss saturday alone, i think this cat has a lot of other shit going on, even on saturday i said before he just didn't look comfortable from the outset.

I'd tell the governer to stick it up moon river, fight under a different flag next time. truth be told.
That's fucking shit man, what's next if he loses another title bid the village electricity and water supplies get cut off?Quote:
