    The reason is at this point in their careers they are enjoying great successes and could go out on top however with any loss hereafter there will be calls for their retirements because they are shot or are over rated. Boxing fans who post on forums are merciless to a loser.

    Evander Holyfield-Should have retired after beating Ruiz for his 4th HW title.

    John Ruiz-Should have retired simply to help the HW divison

    James Toney-Unless he can pull of a really impressive win over a quality opponent, why keep going?

    I agree I might swap Wright for Lacy after watching that fight last night. I watched Wright against Williams in Vegas and he still had some fight in him.
