Brandon Rios: "I wanna be remembered like Gatti."

Gatti why? It is about making money and being able to function after you retire!!!

 

he's on his way...why doesnt he just learn some defense so he wont end up like Freddie Roach

 

a boxing warrior punishment sponge, kiddn gatti was awesome, good luck with that rios

 

Mayweather fan in a nutshell.

 

Brandon Rios is a monster, hes on my MUST WATCH list.

Dude is ****ing courageous.

 

More like a fan of logic. I am not saying Gatti was not entertaining but Rios should not want to have a career like that even if Gatti was alive I am sure he would agree that he should of train better and have better people handling his money.

 

As a boxing fan dont you want to be entertained, i love fighters like morales, or even risk takers like froch and cotto, thats whats boxing is all about for me, great fights

 

Jake LaMotta
George Foreman
Rocky Marciano

All sharp guys after their horrendous punishment in the ring, how do you explain them guys?

Take a look at Brandons trainer, Robert Garcia... sharp as a knife and he's been through complete wars.

Just because you go out there and do battle, doesnt mean you'll be a slurring mess by the end of your career.

 

basically.

if he had actually seen Rios fight he would know for a pressure fighter his defense and head movement is pretty good.

 

I respect what he's saying, in wanting to be remembered in the love and adored way that most remember Gatti.

Before those call me, or others that agree with me, assholes for loving fighters like Gatti(in reference to a fighter going through brutal wars), , just know I personally don't want to see fighters unable to function after boxing. But fighters like Gatti gave fans his heart, and that old school warrior mentality is the reason they are loved.

(most) Gatti fans, didn't love watching Gatti because we wanted to see him hurt, we love him for what he was willing to give, and the heart he showed. If you wanna call bull****, fine, youre obviously not getting my point, and/or trying to troll.

Rios' can be a dick, and I will never look at him as I look at Gatti, but strictly based off of his last fight, my respect for him has jumped dramatically, and I look forward to seeing him in the ring soon.

 

What does that got to do with my post? I love boxing and I want to be entertain but I don't like seeing fighters being broke and having physical problems after they retire!!!

 

its none of your business, its a boxers decision in what he wants to do, they're adults afterall.

perhaps you need to find a new sport which is a little less violent?

 

Boxing is not a game those boxers got out healthy and some of them were able to invest there money wisely good for them. Gatti was a fan favorite and brawler and look how he end up not being able to speak well and have all type of issues after he retire.
