thats an article about the eye surgeries.

Good to go my ass.

Your lucky if your good to go after 1 surgery.
After 3, I highly doubt he's good to go.

Bummer. I was really looking forward Izzy to KTFO Darchinyan at 122.

Gatti and Ward pretty much took out what was left of eachother.
Yes Gatti went on to win some fights but he was never the same.
Ward retired after the trilogy.

As for Erik and MAB.
I don't recall either one of them looking like this after anyone of those fights.

Another big difference for Erik-MAB as against Izzy-Rafa is, they did their rematch fights with about 2 years gaps and not immediate rematches... Erik and MAB had enough time to recuperate from those brutal encounters unlike Izzy and Rafa who engaged 3 brutal wars in succession then sadly the price could be the sudden fall of their respective boxing career... I hope I'm wrong...
