    He talked so much mad **** for years. Said he was gonna destroy Loma and that Loma was running.

    In the weigh in he has this BS, overcompensating machismo. Trying to act all hard.

    Then the fight happens. He literally goes the entire fight without landing a hard punch. He doesnt even throw a single punch intended to cause pain. Not one.

    He holds so much that he gets a point deducted. Which is pretty much impossible to do with todays refs.

    He quit on his stool and says he has a boo boo on his hand. Which boggles my mind since all he hit was air.

    Then he ran away from the world to hide. And hasn't been heard of since. No accountability, nothing.

    All he had to do was stop holding and take a massive ass beating. It's that simple. Just go in there and get ****en destroyed. But no he quit, held and ran away like a 12 year old girl.

    Why did he quit? There was no shame in losing. Loma was the worlds most skilled and best fighter at the time. And Rigo was old and small. He could never win.

    I think it's because hes weak. Hes afraid of pain and taking a hard shot. Softest guy in boxing. And one of the weakest hearts I think I've ever seen.

    This. Khan at times would run in panic, but in the end he always stands his ground and goes out on his shield.

    If you want a mentally weak fighter then look at Luis Arias. He completely froze vs Jacobs. He then talked mad **** to Rosado. Rosado called him out on his BS pre fight.
    During the opening rounds it was Luis acting tough and mocking Rosado, who wasn't bothered by it at all. Somewhere in the middle of the fight Luis started giving Rosado props. And seemingly for no reason. They were fighting on even terms and Luis could not cope with it. He could´t handle the fact that Rosado was putting up a fight.
    In the later rounds it was clear that Luis wanted the fight to end. And of course he started talking **** again after they had left the ring.

    Froze every time someone put up a good fight. The Peterson fight was absolutely astonishing.

    True that. Khan may be the stupidest boxer while Rigo the mentally weakest.

    Ok, but after the 2nd round, Rigo was shriveled up by then. He was done, had enough. Reality had already set in for him.

    Sure, and that's the point most everyone agrees with. But you need to head to the local pool hall to find someone who might be the "most mentally weak fighter ever."

    That's the def of mentally weak, though its a bit of hyperbole to call him the most I'll give ya that. But he was very mentally frail. A great fighter should not throw in the towel so soon.
