I think fenech retired when he was 32. I think that was coz his hands had been broken so many times that he just couldnt do it anymore.

I think Marciano could have stayed around a bit longer but he was really struggling to stay disciplined, not helped by the fact he had arseholes working within his camp.

Naz did stop way too early. He was shit hot but bottled it after losing to barrera. The guy had it all but just hasn;lt come back. He had one more fight against Calvo after the barrera fight but got booed by fans for being negative. Hasn't been seen since. He had a rematch clause with barrera but chumped it.

no ur right

Definitely Marvelous Marvin Haggler.
Marv's pride was seriously affected with the outcome of the SRL fight and I think he was at the top of his game when he boxing 'no-mas'

Naseem defo and Lewis....
Who did'nt wanna see the rematch against Klitchko..?
NO-ONE

Lennox Lewis-- Should have stayed for a Vitali rematch.

George Foreman-- Should have came back to try to win it 1 more time.

Roy Jones Jr. -- Should have stopped fighting flat-footed, retrained, regained his old style, and came back to decimate Tarver. Â If Johnson can give Tarver problems, he should be able to.

Naseem Hamed-- Should have tried to return Barrera the favor.

Marvin Hagler-- Should have came back to win against SRL, I hated the outcome of that fight.

I could go on and on.

Pipino cuevas also had a couple years left

Definetly nas, only lost 1 fight and left, he could of been a legend, oh well.

oh yeah larry holmes he could still get some years out of him!

Zárate left boxing world too early.
I loved "el Cañas", specially when he shut Zamora.  I have always wait in vain for the remacht with Bazooka Gomez
