If Walters looks progressively worse in his next 2-3 fights, we'll know for sure.
We of course say that there's no excuses if a fighter loses, and I think this applies to Walters especially. If Walters was at the top of his game, I just can't see him beating Lomachenko's movement and punch placement. He was constantly turned and beaten to the punch, had his right hand completely taken away from him, and was getting hit with increasingly regularity as the fight wore on. Even he said that he barely made it out of the 7th round. He says that fight would have went differently if he wasn't so inactive, but I honestly don't believe him.
And also seeing Donaire's last few fights that KO win isn't looking soo good anymore.

Walters must not realize that they showed video from the corner of HIM quitting, and not his corner throwing in the towel.
You know... he kinda got up and told Tony Weeks he didn't want to fight anymore.
What is he talking about "of course I wanted to continue, but I have to respect my corner for stopping it."

Walters needs to stick with beating on 126lbers. He's not going to be able to bully 130-135lb boxers.

I mean boxing is the LAST sport you wan to be in when you have NO HEART! When the going gets tough in boxing, boxers usually reach down inside and find out what their TRULY made of...You take away Walters right hook and he will fold like a cheap suit.
And also seeing Donaire's last few fights that KO win isn't looking soo good anymore.
Still doesn't justify quitting. If you are mentally broken like that, atleast come out for the next round and let him catch you with something big and go down so it looks like you went out on your shield.
But quitting... Thats bad...
The only fighter I can recall that came back from quitting was Duran. But Duran had already proved himself to be one of the baddest mofo's on the planet before that. So he got some wiggle room.

Walters gave up because he was outclassed and on the verge of getting knocked out.
