    It must be a tough choice for fighters, do I do what fans want or secure my future. Whadya think? Do the right thing! Fight the power!
    Brooks was too brave for his own good, Buster Douglas just lay down when he was hit by Evander and laughed all the way to the bank.

    $5 million for a broken eye socket which was broken a second time against Spence. Doctor having told him that one more round against GGG and he could've gone blind in one eye.

    Hmm.....






    I suppose $5 million could buy a good seeing-eye dog and a red and white cane.




    Seriously though, who's to say what future earnings he forfeited by becoming damaged goods. We'll never know.

    Hell..... even Khan could probably (gulp) take him now.

    Garcia did not take as bad a beating as Brook did but going up in weight does seem to weaken a fighter and takes "miles" off their clock from the fighter.

    Ask Roy Jones.

    Hey, i'm not him, you tell him he's stupid, i'm just explaining why he fought Golovkin, like all fighters they're chasing a mega payday. He bought a great big house outright, secured his families future and invested in business afterwards, oh, and he's still boxing, so however bad his eye was it passes all the medicals and he's still "risking" going blind. Prize fighters, mad ain't they?
