    Good for Junior. Boxing is not a profession for anyone who isn't in it wholeheartedly. I hope he has a happy, healthy life.

    Hope he managed to stash some boxing cash away to enable him to buy kumara hotcakes well into the future.

    You don't play boxing. Either all in or nothing. This decision saved himself a few braincells

    It's not that he didn't want to hurt people anymore, it's that he didn't want to get hurt anymore, and considering he was going to be stepping in the ring with Arslanbek Makhmudov in a few weeks time, getting hurt was a pretty high probability. So he made the right call.

    He was tired of being a punching bag.

    Good for him. I understand he had some health issues, but regardless, he didn't have it. Hope he stashed some money and can pay off a house, or something.

    Best of luck to him. Gave it a shot but is done with it.

    You can't argue with that.

    My man Lucas Browne wrecked him for good.

    He knew that type of loss was heading his way again. I hope they find suitable replacement for Makh.

    That's a bit annoying but good for him if he didn't think he had it anymore. He got hurt pretty bad by Browne and Sanchez and maybe that was a wake up call for him. He can go into acting maybe. He's a big Samoan bloke with decent looks and those are in high demand these days. There were lots in Rings of Power, though that series was s***. But work is work.

    I think you’d be surprised. My money’s on Browne.

    I mean you’re right Browne should win. He has a habit of bouncing back from loses like a champ and that’s why he’s still relevant. But he is so slow and there is a good chance he will get tagged at least some. It depends if he still has anything left I guess.
