Delusional as hell! You will never be champion again but you have done great for yourself and family, keep it moving! You have gotten lucky fighting guys who stand right in front of you but showed many signs of being finished as an elite fighter. Move on………….
Very poor showing, after the first round it was all Haney. Made him look like a chump and definitely not a world champion
Totally outclassed. I really thought Regis had a chance.
A lot of these guys are just unable to be objective when they end up in this position. I think sometimes it is that same quality that helps them succeed in the sport but leads them to delude themselves when their time has come and gone. One thing they do not often seem to get is how much tougher it will now be. Even weaker champions like Romero have no upside in fighting him now. Maybe he can beat Romero…but so? If he goes to Welter I just cannot fathom who would want to fight him because again the opponent would have no upside. Plus for the fights he does get, the pay will be lower, the opponents will have more confidence an therefore be tougher, and as it has been definitively proven that he is not the guy..he will get no favors from the officials. I do understand that if he wants to continue because his name will still make him more money then a regular job…it is his right. But with guys like Crawford and Boots at Welter…come on man…it ain’t happening.
He never was a quality fighter. flat footed reflexes like a statue.
