    I'm leaning towards no due to his interview on Saturday night because thats the most emotional I have heard joe and I still believe he may fight dawson to finally shut up American boxing experts up.

    He'll definitely retire - he's too worried about his "0" to fight again and risk losing it.

    Shame he scared of re-matches and wont fight Hopkins again. Virtually all the great fighters have re-matched someone - part of the reason Joe falls short of true greatness.

    I say yes, but I can't totally make my mind up on this. It's going to be difficult for him to retire after fighting for all those years.

    I'm leaning that he will.
    Don't think his heart is in it anymore (that's not to say he doesn't make an ill-advised comeback in 18 months time).

    He didn't rematch Reid either. It's a shame. Some things are more important than the "0".
