    Blamed his corner. Blamed his inactivity. Said what he did wasn't a matter of quitting, then when pressed by Kellerman says he asked to be permitted to stop fighting because he was getting hurt and didn't want to continue getting hurt (which I'm really not sure can be called anything other than quitting?)

    Just had an overall petulant tone, grasping at straws for ways to save face instead of just being humble and praising his conqueror.

    If Walters made it to the end, I bet there would be some Ward type fans who believed he won the fight.

    Did Roy and Jim seriously contemplate Lomachenko vs Crawford or Pac? Is that where we really are now? :lol:

    Is it just me... Or does Walters remind anyone of a pint sized G-Jones?

    What remains a fact is that Walters was an elite fighter until he met Lomachenko.

    I find Lomachenko's boxing very weird. He is literally one of the very best ever who needs more stimulation than elites.

    I'm so sick of these catchweight fights. I don't care about Loma-Pacquiao. Just line them up at 130 and 135. 130's still a really good division. Vargas, Corrales, Miura, Corrales are fights worth making. Mikey Garcia is the fight for Loma I want to see, but he's not an HBO guy anymore. If Mikey beats Zlaticanin and doesn't call out Loma he's running scared.

    You want to see class from a guy who just lost go check out Donaire's capitulation to Walters. That was classy.

    Lomachenko is a great great talent, not my favourite but he's so good.

    He did. Btw you've got to learn to score a fight. Do you know anything about the other criteria?
