    He came to survive and got beat up. If he had come to fight and gone out on his shield like Proksa did, he'd have earned my utmost respect.

    His team were idiots for cashing him out like that, especially with a title shot waiting.

    It's preference. There are fans like you who enjoy blood and guts bums like the Mickey Wards and the Rosados. Then there are the purists such as myself who are strictly about the sweet science and enjoy boxing masters such as the Finitos, Marquezs, and the Kazutos of the world.

    Rosado is a tough punching bag.

    that's probably double what he's earned in his entire career. Bad move, especially with a win over K9 putting a potential Canelo fight on the horizon.

    Of course not. If I became a fan of every underdog who gets beaten like an underdog I'd be a fan of hundreds of them. I liked Rosado's build-up and fighting spirit, but that's what he was supposed to do, and effort is not enough to win a fight - or a fan, just like I don't jump off a wagon because someone fails to put it up. I respect him the same as 24 hours ago.

    Rosado has the heart of a warrior. I'm hoping he receives a title shot at 154.

    He can make some noise at 154 with a chin like that. Idk how he took some of those shots. He needs to fight in a more offensive stance

    he made me a fan the main thing i like is that if hes goes back to 154 he can beat some of the top guys
    he improved on so much things his head movement was good only thing is at times he was just tryin to survive and not punchin, but after facin Golovkin if he faces someone like Kirkland i think he would destroy him and Angulo too
