A coward and a punk? LOL

A lot of people retire after their first loss. I bet you think Tito is a coward too?

I doubt he is really retiring. That was by far his biggest stage and he got knocked out first round. He is feeling devastated he worked his way up and now he's got to re-prove himself again.

a radio station reported that because of Bautista's defeat, his hometown of Candijay would not be getting a paved road leading into town. Provincial Governor Erico Aumentado promised before Bautista's fight the road would be paved by 2008 if he brought home the title. On Sunday, Aumentado pushed the road-paving date back to 2010 and blamed Bautista's loss.

I'd tell the governer to stick it up moon river, fight under a different flag next time. truth be told.
That governor sounds like a douche bag What a muthaf*ck! Putting all that additional pressure on a 21 year old and blaming him for losing?? F*ck him.
