    Who do you think should call it a day?

    I say Chisora. He's beyond done now, and he's gonna suffer serious damage if he carries on.

    A breakout star for next year might be Benavidez. Fan friendly style, could be an attraction.

    Your turn...

    Saw a video of Thurman training a few weeks ago. He looks absolutely shocking.

    Benavidez if he can find decent opposition in the SMW division if not move up.

    I think whilst Chisors is passed it. he's earning good cash he will carry on for at least a couple more fights. only a quick knockout will deter Derek.

    The amount of boxers right now who were suppose to be "elite" lost 1 time and basically retired is astonishingly high.

    Should retire = Wilder
    Breakout= Butaev or Ennis. Butaev already has a belt but I think he can be a star with his style.

    Why should Wilder retire? It'd be a crying shame if we never get to see Wilder-Joshua.

    He has taken a lot of punishment especially in the the last two fights. He is getting into his late 30's and is not going to get any better and he has made a lot of money at this point. He should get out before he ends up with permanent damage.

    Have you seen any of his recent video's? It seems like it's a tad too late for that.
