    Sad to hear, but probably the best decision, Derry. You've always come across as a genuinely nice bloke on here and at least you can hold your head up high and say you took the best challenges on that were available to you. It's probably no consolation, but on the domestic scene you have given us some thrilling fights as well. Best of luck in what you do, mate. All the best:good.

    Keep posting pal.

    And hopefully you can build yourself a career in training and coaching, you've got a lot of experience to pass on, can't buy that

    If you feel the fire is going out, it's best to stop with your health intact

    All the best fella

    You can hold your head up high and say you have achieved in boxing what many many people could only dream of, and you newver backed any challengers and always took hard fights. All the best with the future
