    There was a British Middleweight fighter who was a prospect but he has retired already. His name is Andy Lee.

    Frankie Gomez and Shawn Estrada come to mind.

    Boxing is brutal and tiresome. All the hard work, politics, financials... To choose a steady job which he likes seems like a no brainer.

    Matvey Korobov. Absolute travesty to see his career go down the pan. After the Lee loss, no one wants to fight him. High risk low reward - yet he is certainly one of the best middleweights and had he been active wouldve been a huge asset to an already deep division. Such a shame to see so much talent go to waste.

    Check out the score Vanes ''The Nightmare'' Martin Ross Ian beat him by. No one whooped him like Vanes. Estrada is 2-2 against Daddy Jacobs, and he also beat Olympic gold medalist and current WBA reg champ Murata.

    There was a talented
    Super Bantamweight from
    the Kronk Gym named Jemal
    Hinton, I wondered what ever
    happened to him, so I looked
    him up, turns out he retired
    from Boxing for religious
    reasons.
