Who should really retire?

Evander Holyfield- He's one of my favorites and he's fighting on too long..I hate to see a fighter go through a tough life because he didnt know when to call it quits.

 

Holyfield
RJJ
ODLH
Jose Luis Castillo

 

Yes . . . no brainer

Jose Luis Castillo
Evander Holyfield
DLH
RJJ
Bhops
Barrera
. . . . James Toney

 

ODLH
Holyfield
Tommy Morrison
Andrew Golota

 

Calzaghe!!! oh, wait...

 

If Kevin Kelley isn't retired yet, then yes, him also.

 

All of them - sounds like a reasonable list.

 

Can I just select all.
Hopkins is still good, but I dont wanna see him fighting til he has nothing left and it gets embarrassing.

 

all of them except winky, i think he still has it. hopkins i still had some of it left

 

most of the old guys in the HW division like Ray Austin, McCall, Monte Barrett, Rahman, Maskaev, Ruiz, Skelton, McCline, Sinan Samil Sam, Danny Williams, Toney, Holyfield, Golota, DaVarryl Williamson, Vidoz, Krasniqi, Oquendo, Moli

HW guys who should fight on are Tua, Meehan, Brewster and Lyakhovich.

other Guys who should retire: Jones, Tarver, Castillejo, Oscar De La Hoya,

 

All those guys listed above should retire ... no matter if they have something left in the tank or not ... they are holding back some young up and comer from getting the spot light put on them. Alot of those guys are just living off of their name to get paid.

Shane Mosley should retire - he has nothing else to prove ... let Berto, Williams, Cotto, and Margarito do their thing.

Vernon Forrest should retire - fighting once a year and babysitting a title, pricing yourself out of big fights, there's nothing else to gain for him.

Glenn Johnson should retire - he's probably reached his peak and if keeps going, he's just going to keep compaining about losing close fights ... Hey Glenn you're old ... give it up and let a young dude shine or accept the role as a gatekeeper.

Antonio Tarver - Please give it up or run the risk of getting knocked the **** out --

These older guys have their experience to rely on and maybe some tricks of the trade but when it comes down to winning a close fight, the judges and the majority of the public is going to go for the younger guy.

More fighters who should retire:
Zahir Raheem
Marco Antonio Barrera
Hasim Rahman
James Toney
John Ruiz
Chris Bryd
Javier Castillejo
Jose Luis Castillo
Verno Phillips
William Joppy
Carlos Baldomir
Juan Manuel Marquez
Joel Casamayor

 

just curious why should tua fight on but not austin, golota, and sam for instance whom at least have had decent performances within the past few years whereas tua hasn't even fought someone with a pulse in 5 years. guess he has taken less damage but c'mon the guy can't even train. meehan should retire because he's a bum

 

2 guys come to mind right away
HOLLY

CHRIS BYRD

Great guys, had great careers, but its time to move on to the next chapter of there lives
