    I agree!

    I'm not a big fan of JMM (I'm a PAC fan) but I see no reason to kick the guy, when he's already down.

    I don't understand the disrespect some fighters get -- especially on a boxing forum.:-(

    He's a smart guy and he understands that he's 40 and that there isn't much more for him to accomplish in the sport. I actually hope that he does retire and enjoys the rest of his life.

    JMM got off an EXTREMELY lucky punch vs Pac. No question about it, in fact anyone who says it wasn't lucky didn't see the fight or were blinded by their bias

    He SHOULD retire. He is 40 freaking years old.
    He had contributed tons to the sport, much like Morales recently did by coming out of retirement, so he should just enjoy life.

    Let Pac and Bradley rematch each other, this version of Timmy actually has better chances of beating Pac -- that is, of course, assuming Pac will demolish Rios.

    He is one of the biggest sourgraper in the sport though. I have to agree with that. :rofl

    Maybe not in terms of popularity, but Bradley's got one of the best resumes in the sport at the moment.

    Well that's the thing "brah", our culture actually dictates us to be above you "ghetto dawgs" and not kick a guy when he's down.

    JMM is a legend is he should always be remembered that way. And yes, especially with how he KO'd our "hero" Pac.
    He just got old, that's all.

    Respect Bradley. Respect Marquez.

    Jmm should retire, should of after the pac fight. Atg usually need a loss to know when its time to hang them up.

    I think part of a era is just over, jmm lost, pac got ko and was on the decline. Mayweather has 4 fights left. Its over guys, I thank jmm for all the wars and contribution to the sport. Its time for him to hang them up. Will also be a sad day when pacman hangs them up and when mayweather hangs them up also. These guys made our era awsome.

    By that logic, a lot of knock outs are "lucky punches".

    You don't know **** about boxing.

    That's a good decision on JMM's part. I'd rather see him enjoying the fruits of his labor than seeing/hearing him fight again and whine disgracefully like a sissy on national TV should he be "robbed" again. lol
