While theres alot of boxers today who are not only in there late 30s and early 40s but also well past there prime. While there is still good old fighters who seem to lose little with age like Hopkins or Mccall, but you also have fighters like Roy Jones and Evander Holyfield who have lost alot of there skills over the years. What fighter would you like to see just retire before he gets hurt or embarrassed?
I myself would like to see Holyfield retire, he has already accomplished what most heavywieghts can only dream of. While I think he has 50/50 chance of beating Iggy, win or lose he should retire after his next fight.
Michael Moorer Marco Antonio Barrera (if he loses to Pacquiao) Evander Holyfield (if he loses to Ibragimov)
Riddick Bowe Holyfield (tho I think will beat Sultan) RJJ (tho I think he will beat Tito) Moorer Mccall EM I am sure there are a few that I am forgetting....
I'd agree with most of these except Calzaghe.He is very fresh for his age and has never taken much punishment in the ring.Although if he beats Kessler and then Hopkins or the Pavlik/taylor winner he will have nothing left to prove and should just retire on top
I dont think there's an active fighter today who has taken more clean, hard, flush punches than Luis "Yory Boy" Campas. I'd hate to see the results of those punches 15 to 20 years down the line! Yory Boy should really hang them up for the sake of his health.....but unfortunately he's been robbed blind by his manager along with the aid of the most corrupt promoter in boxing, Bob Arum.
People keep wanting Holyfield to retire, and I agree......Vargas however has'nt even shown a spark of what he used to be since the DLH fight. Hopefully the fight with Mayorga will be his last, because he's a catastrophe waiting to happen. If he continues to fight, my guess it that he'll end up like Meldrick Taylor. Hang them up Nando!!!
