    Yes there are. Wtf?
    A lot of guys stick around for too long because they just can´t let go.
    Sergio was on top of the world and look how it all ended. You honestly think he is content on going out like that?
    And looking at his Instagram, you can see that Sergio is working hard and is in tremendous shape. Likely has built up enough confidence to convince himself that he still can compete as a pro.

    Arturo Gatti had no need for money, but he tried a comeback.
    Miguel Cotto could have retired many times, but he himself said it best: "it´s all I know".
    Ffs, Hopkins retired at 51. You think he needed the money?

    I thought he was lined up to fight Chavez jr last year or the year before but can’t remember why it fell through?

    hope he stays retired to be honest

    I thought he was managing the Spanish welterweight who beat cheeseman for the ebu awhile ago?

    Have the rematch with Margarito. And then the big Argentinian showdown against Maidana, then bite the dust.

    Yes, you're right. Some of those aging fighters did not need money, but many of them did.

    There is always an exception but Hop was one of the few. Manny is also fighting well at an advanced age but there are too many examples of fighters who stuck around too long. BHop going through the ropes and almost landing on his head was not fun to watch. He could have been killed.

    Funny to think back to the arguments I had on here with people thinking that Martinezs knees were fine and that they were just being used as excuses for the Cotto loss.

    ...

    As far as a comeback, i hope this news isn't true and that he stays retired.

    Per Bscene.

    Sergio "Maravilla" Martínez has decided to postpone his return to the ring, scheduled for June 6, due to the coronavirus pandemic.

    "Something is already being said about a potential rematch against Julio César Chávez Jr. It could do us both good."
