    He is a throw back fighter.

    Anyone, anytime, anywhere.

    And he usually puts up stiff competition.
     
  3. Became a fan of Gabe when he fought GGG. Showed tons of heart

    Rosado rocks!

    Nowdays it's all about ducking other fighters, trying to make money without any risks and protect your ego and record. We need more fighters like Rosado. He fights anyone anywhere and always comes in shape and fights his heart out.

    Rosado skipped the fight against K9 and went to challenge Golovkin. That is called badass. And to be honest I think Rosado would have knocked out Bundrage but he choose the harder way.

    Respect! one of my favourites!

    Definitely a throwback fighter and he is improving.

    As others have said a throwback fighter that deserves a lot of credit and will trouble a lot of elite fighters and perhaps beat some if their style suits him.

    Any fighter who agrees to get in the ring with Golovkin deserves our massive respect.

    If he actually dukes it out, as Rosado did, then even more respect.


    End of.

    And what makes it more cool is the fact that he didn't use his chance to beat K9 and be a worldchamp because of that..

    i'd watch him fight before the p4p guys like Ward, Floyd etc. would love to see Rosado vs. Josesito Lopez at some point

    Rosado is a 160 and josesito is a shot 147 who is all but finished as a top contender(I cant think of the last time a fighter had three consecutive wars along with two consecutive ko losses and was not done/ i.e Riddick bowe).

    for those that know boxing were waiting for canelito/Rosado after alvarez loses to Floyd.

    depending how bad alvarez looks on 9/14 Gabriel would be a +400 and would be the buy of the year.

    josesito lopez was never at the level of the current Gabriel Rosado let alone weight classes.

    dude has been learning on the job and is much better than his record indicates. he's trouble for anyone at 154...and if he plays his cards right, he can be a champion. hard not to like a guy who takes the risks he has.

    Yup. Also remember he only had like 10 amateur fights. So hes still learning in the pro ranks. Definitely a throwback fighter
