    Last night Graham Earl was stopped in 72 seconds of the first round. Around 5 seconds faster than he got stopped in the Khan fight. I think this is a sad time, think he was a top top domestic fighter and one that pushed a top world class fighter to his limits in Michael Katsidis. Now its time to call it a day for sure and i hope he does.

    Arguably, Earl ruined Katsidis too :p

    Retirement would seem wise for him. Losing in 1 to Khan is one thing, losing in 1 to the 18-4 Henry Castle is another.

    Actually Khan stopped him in 72 sec and Castle in 70,even faser.I saw the fight,Earl really doesn't have anything left,he is shot.Castle shouldn't get to much praise for this victory.Definetely the Katsidis fight has taken a lot out of Graham,but he always was a warrior.He will be remembered for his great fight wirh Mick
