Shane Mosley
Evander Holyfield
Oliver McCall
Winky Wright
..and a few others
All these guys are at the end of their careers. Already this year Gatti and Vargas have retired after being major draws in boxing. My question is who is next? I think it will be Winky or Trinidad.
Oscar De La Hoya keeps getting fights he doesn't deserve. Great at one point, but needs to get out of the way NOW.
Bernard Hopkins should still keep fighting. He hasn't lost in a while or showed signs that he can't fight anymore. His style allows him to fight for a couple more years.
Roy Jones and Felix Trinidad should call their fight "One Last Time" cause there is no way these two should be fighting after their collision.
Shane Mosley proved he still has the ability to fight the big fights. But one or two more then good bye Sugar Shane.
Evander Holyfield should've retired after the second Lennox Lewis fight.
Oliver McCall...WOW I can't believe someone said that name! But yes, he should retire.
Winky Wright also has a style that can keep him in the ring for years to come as well.
You did forget to mention the retirements of probably two of the best of the lighter fighters EVER! Erik Morales and Marco Antonio Barrera!!!
good call. They have been added. I guess it hasnt sunk in that Barrera and Morales have finally retired. And at a good time imo.
