Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero has called it quit with the fistic sport. The boxer retired from boxing on Monday following his 3rd round knockout loss to Omar Figueroa Jr. last Saturday night at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York.
Guerrero, 34, (33-6-1, 18 KOs) prior to his retirement was dropped 5 times by Figueroa Jr. in his 3rd round knockout loss.
“I want to thank God for allowing me to have a wonderful career,” said Guerrero.
“I’m a kid from a small town in Gilroy, California, who made it to the mountain top of the boxing world. When I was a young kid growing up, I always believed in myself, but never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined a small-town kid like myself, would be fighting in front of millions of fans.”
