    Good, he's a tough mf and would have taken some more proper beatings, hopefully he looked after his money and can enjoy the rest of his life.
    Would have been worried if he'd have continued taking blows to his head

    Good. He absorbed too much punishment already, didn't need any more. Hope he enjoys retirement.

    I hope he stays retired and not come back in six months or so for a final pay day.

    Great to hear!

    Always gave 110%, never shirked any challenge.

    But carrying on from this point out is only going to end up with slurred speech and bad quality of life down the road.

    Brave for a warrior like DelBoy to hang 'em up, but the right decision I think.

    I'm so glad Del Boy went out on a W, especially considering the stuff he went through before. I hope he has an awesome retirement.

    A fairly talented dinosaur in fairness to him

    I'm happy he is retiring. It was time to call it a career. I was a big fan of his back when he was fighting guys like Vitali. Not so much in recent years.

    Seemed like his career as a top contender was basically over back in 2014 when he lost the rematch to Fury.

    I'm also happy he's leaving because it was getting a little tiresome seeing boxers like Parker and Usyk waste time fighting him because Eddie Hearn just didn't have that many heavyweights to match them with.

    I hope he enjoys his retirement.
