LondonRingRules Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 --- Boxing fans sure to be disappointed, distraught even to find The Wonder Kid is retiring, KOed by an eye injury. I don't often watch the tiny divisions, bu his name stood out, easy to spell and remember, and fun to watch develop...alas...

pittbox Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Re: Rex Tso Sad news, but fighting is not worth of worsening his condition. I hope that something can be done to improve his vision to comfortable level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoztheMadman Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Re: Rex Tso Last I heard from him - was that him and his girlfriend decided that he should take some time off and enjoy life after busy years as a boxer - which sounded weird after you got in position to be number 1 contender... with champion about to move up(Inoue back then)... Now it makes more sense. Sad story - I was a fan. Always reminded me of Chad Dawson... and he'd have great chance, with his physical attributes - to shock Nietes and become a star. Hopefully he made enough money to start somewhere else now. MASTRA!! Is that really you?!? :wave: So good to see you, old friend. :hug:Where have you been since 2012?

Cableaddict Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Re: Rex Tso I must admit, I've never even heard of this guy, but I'm glad he had the sense to do the smart thing. Like somebody once said, "you don't PLAY boxing." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoztheMadman Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Re: Rex Tso Would be easier for me to answer if you told me what nickname I could've known you as before... Pretty sure I never talked to any Bozthe Madman before ;). Nickname...let's see...what was I known as on that Sweetboxing forum. I had several different nicknames, that's the problem. Name Slaven or Slav tell you anything? I was called Slayer at one point too, I believe. OH YES, NOTHINGMAN! That was it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoztheMadman Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Re: Rex Tso Right, sure I remember. Was wondering if you still post/write somewhere! Good to see you. I was still active on other forum, only heard of this place yesterday. :wave: What other forum? I'm glad you can be with us now at least. :thumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
repsac Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Re: Rex Tso I must admit, I've never even heard of this guy, but I'm glad he had the sense to do the smart thing. Like somebody once said, "you don't PLAY boxing." I followed him for a bit when he fought on those Top Rank cards in China featuring Zou Shiming, who coincidently retired due to an eye injury as well.

BoztheMadman Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Re: Rex Tso (Edit) I was using twitter actively for some time after sweetboxing got shut down too, but done with it. We'll see how often I'll be around here - times have changed a bit, it's been a while - but either way, looking forward to some good boxing discussion. Curious if you still have some of that old fire left in you :boxing:. Sel (Admin) Please do not name other forums, keep all that to PM private message please. :thumb: Hehe, I see. ;-) I know you and some others from SB were on that forum for a while before it got hacked. I do still have some fire left, believe it! :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoztheMadman Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Re: Rex Tso My bad. I was never thinking of it as a forum that's why I just wrote it without even thinking. Still new here, don't be too harsh on a noobie ;-) :mlol: I began to wonder now...why would Mastra post that? :haha: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
