I don't think his left eye will ever be in position to hold up in any fight....
I hate to see him blinded almost every fight. He really should stop, or hold off on boxing for a while until he works out what's wrong with his eye.

I was going to say no till I saw an article about how he broke hes Orbital rim. Same thing happened to Margarito and we all saw how that eye was never the same. Its a shame because Rosado had some potential. He almost beat Kid Chocolate till he was stopped cause of hes eye. Good guy and good fighter but he should call it a day and walk away before his health is damaged.
Rosado Says Orbital Bone Was Broken in Third Round - Boxing News
Depends if he has any desire for a reasonable quality of life after boxing. Every time I see him he's taking a ton of head damage. That shit adds up. That's five in a row with 3 stoppages, and even though he wasn't knocked out in those stoppages he took some serious punishment.
I get nervous for guys like him who go on the skids. Angulo is in the same boat.
That's crazy stuff, hope he iwll be ok
Rosado is the stuff of Wide World of Sports..and that's a good thing. Good tv. Charismatic, confident and always willing but he has always leaky on defense. He does a lot of 'busy' stuff. It just caught up on a much higher lasting level now and its the stuff that will make his phone ring for next opponent role. Not trying to bash dude but there was a point Saturday where you wanted to stop it yourself, you could see him sag and on instinct. Whatever he decides his potential was maximized and he has earned more than he has.
He seems so damn slick and talented and yet cant get over the hump. Reminds me a lot of Shamba Mitchell.

It's the eye man. The eye. He has great skill, but everyone knows he cuts especially on the left eye. And it seems to cut easier and easier as his career progresses.Quote:

I'm a rosado fan, but he is starting to look shopworn at a very young age. He's been through the meat grinder a lot now. It's time to start formulating an exit plan or drop a weight class at the very least.
yes he should quit. his face is way too fragile now and it will only get worse.
Some guys have hand issues, like Naseem Hamed. Some have body issues, some have nose issues like JMM and some have eye and eye socket issues, like Rosado.
All of these are as much as fatal flaws as is a weak chin. Rosado has a good chin, but his fatal flaw is that he cuts over the eyes.

The eye isn't the biggest concern, because flesh wounds heal. I'm more concerned with the amount of flush head punches he's taken in the last 5 fights.
Beanflicker nailed it. Being wobbled isn't new to Rosado and its not so much the cuts for me as it is not getting out of the way in the first place. Especially on the run of top guys he is at.
One thing I didn't hear the HBO announce team mention is that the New York doctors may have been quicker to stop it than usual because they've still got the Magomed Abdusalamov fight in their minds. And watching Rosado take the punishment Lemieux was dishing, I was reminded of Magomed too.
