Really I know exactly why fighters want to continue, there head and heart says they can still win, they have spent all their lives training and working for something, they get almost Institutionalised, but in reality their bodies are no longer up for the task and 9 out of 10 comebacks end in defeat.
I actually wouldn't mind seeing ODLH vs Tito 2, both men are older and slower. So i think we would see more toe to toe action than there first meeting and plus it would be a major event.
seriously dude De La Hoya has a hell of a lot more in the tank then Trinidad, at least he can make weight for big fights
I can name several reasons why fighters keep on past their prime:
a. they love to fight
b. they think they still can
c. they're hooked on the cheering and the fan worship
d. they can't stand some young gun stealing their thunder
e. (a few extra million don't hurt either)
Hopefully it's retirement. he doesn't belong in the ring anymore.
