Michael Katsidis Retires

This is ignorant to say.

A fighter isn't just great for keeping his 0 or winning a title... I am sure even Zuri Lawrence has fans and supporters.

 

Not on this site.

Unfortunately on ESB, if a fighter expresses any concern for their health in any capacity, he is deemed a coward.

 

That is surely up the fighter. It takes balls to even get in the ring. Its MORE cowardly to say a fighter is a pu$$y for retiring on health grounds. In a way its quite sadistic, someone also wrote that he can still make money and be a "gatekeeper" 2+ fights.... They totally dismiss that the next punch could A) kill him and B) make him disabled not being able to enjoy the rest of his life.

 

Great fighter to watch in his prime. Hope he enjoys his well earned retirement.

 

I'm always happy for every fighter who retires at a time when many others in their position don't.

 

Yes, agreed.

May he relax and not have to worry about boxing any more... He can still do the things he loves. If word is true about the injury or the MRI he can recover and lead a normal life.

 

How is there so much bashing of someone like Katsidis? :huh

Unnecessary.

 

How much money would you bet that he has brain damage?

 

Define brain damage.

You see you get brain "damage" when you are drunk? When you get punched in sparring, fights etc... But you "recover"....

 

He's saving it for an announcement on 21 February. This was the date he was scheduled to fight, but instead he's going to explain the situation which was has caused his premature retirement.

Alot of fighters could learn from this guy.

 

No need to split hairs.

 

I wouldn't. That would be kind of tasteless.

 

Indeed it would.

 

The **** you done then thats so great :good
