This guy is Mexico's version of Rocky, what is he like 103 years old now and still boxing. He was dropped in the sixth round last night. I feel like he's destroyed most of his legacy the last three years. He's gone from being mentioned in that elite group of the best fighters ever to a joke similiar to Larry Holmes. It's too bad because he was one hell of a warrior in his day.

yes, he was a great boxer at his time but since De la hoya defeated him his career went down and now i think he just do it for money because if he thinks he could win he is the only one for sure. he�s 38 years.

He was still one of the greatest. He keeps fighting because he is broke. He wasn't very wise with his money.

He was a very good champion, not a great champion, but very good, I thought he got some gifts in his career like his fight against Whitaker, and the controversial stoppage against Meldrick Taylor, I just hope he quits now and realize its over.
