    Many fighters don't even know when to quit fighting. Maybe we can help them to realize that their best days are gone and will never come back again.

    Add Morales to that list. Dude doesn't even train for a championship fight anymore. Just gets drunk and eats chicharrones.

    Both Jones and Holyfield, definitely. I'm cool with Shane being a gatekeeper (and call "upset alert" on Cinco De Mayo), I don't know much about what Rahman and Toney are doing these days.

    Should have an "all of the above" option as well.

    As they all should have stopped fighting a long time ago.

    Definately all need to hang em up. Mosley is the least shot out of the lot though.

    Roy seems to me the nearest to getting seriously hurt.
    There is absolutely nothing left of the attributes that made him great.

    RJJ shoulda retired after the Ruiz HWC fight. He was a young man then, but coulda had GOAT references.

    Toney shoulda retired after Jirov or even after his win over Peter.

    Holyfield shoulda retired after the draw with Lewis.

    Sugar shoulda retired after drawing with mora.

    BHOP should retire win lose or draw with Dawson.

    Morales should retire after a fight with Marquez.

    Margs should retire after his next KO loss to Chavez Jr.

    Personally I think Holy more than anyone. Just far too old to be in a boxing and in a division with the biggest punchers in the world. Sure he's a warrior and an ATG but he needs to let go and realise that if he faces the klits for a world title he may suffer severe injuries.

    I said Shane, only because he seems the least damaged of the bunch and could possibly escape with most of his faculties.

    Holyfield is sad to see. Toney also. Roy Jones could get out now, still be damaged, but not to the degree of Holy or Toney.

    James Toney because he's showing the worse signs of brain damage.
