    Thanks for that. He is a bit up there in age now. Perhaps it's time he move on. He could have given Spinks a run, maybe beaten him.

    KJ never recovered from the brutal beat down he got from Vitali Klitschko crumpled into the canvas like spider that was stepped on.

    Where's Vassily Jirov?

    Its unfortunate he entered the game so late, major case of the 'what if'. I still think he has something to offer the light middle division, the last fight was just a case of his ego getting a bit to big. I was speaking to him on myspace prior to the July the 7th fight, he was more than confident of getting it done quickly. Mentality all wrong on the night.

    winky. as far as i know he still doesn't have another fight scheduled. which is stupid, because he lost at a weight that he clearly is just not able to fight at.

    Mike Rossman. Last I heard he was a small time criminal with the Mafia in Atlantic City, but that was years ago.

    Gerrie Coetzee.

    I was curious what McCline is planning after he nearly beat Peter and looked good prior to the knee injury against Valuev.

    He fought a couple of comeback fights, and then he retired again before having his last scheduled fight. He had been claiming that he received false positives on his HIV test because of steroid use earlier in life, and that recent tests showed that he was HIV negative. Then he re-retired while trying to get a license in another state. Speculation would lead me to believe that his HIV went back above detectable levels again, so he wasn't able to fight. He looked like crap in his comeback anyway,

    Six Heads Lewis ain't dead.

    Last I heard of Jirov, he was attempting a comeback around ND (back at cruiser), and getting beat down in sparring.

    Winky will be back soon, he is too big of a fighter to just vanish.
    What is Arthur Abraham up to? I know he is still fighting, but who is his next opponent? Cheers. :good
