I can only name 2 maybe 3. Hopkins and Jones Jr. comes to mind. Has Holyfield announce his retirement yet or still fighting?
Guillermo Jones?
going on theme of those fellows, how about james toney, he must be close ? I am just guessing thoughQuote:

Zab Judah surely has been around for 4 decades ;D;D
well there are random HWs that have come back so there may be a few of them on the list like mccall. i thought of yori boy campus but for some reason thought that i heard that he retired. i checked and he is still fighting so he is on that list.
Didn't Hopkins start in the 90's? But Oliver McCall comes to mind.Quote:

James Toney
Bernard Hopkins
Roy Jones
Yori Boy Campas
Oliver McCall
Bronco Billy Wright
That's all I got. For some reason I thought JMM was one, but he started in 1993. The great Jose Luis Castillo came pretty close, he started in 1990.
Damn I thought I had another one in Shannon Briggs but he started in 92
I think Holyfield has retired.Quote:
