    Lennox Lewis- I know he had to do what he had to do for himself but it has never been the same since he left.

    Kostya Tszyu- I still think he had a punchers chance against anyone 140 to 147 for a couple more years.

    Ike Quartey- Was never the same after the Oscar fight but still had an iron chin and skills.

    Marvin Hagler- Damn that Sugar Ray and those judges.

    Sven Ottke- Got out when it was getting interesting.

    Khaosai Galaxy- Little past 30 years old and calls it quit. Was an asian Mike Tyson.

    Ricardo Lopez- Still could have ruled for another couple years.
    Not tryin to be a smart ass, just curious as to why you said Ike Quartey had an iron chin.

    He got dropped by Oscar couple times.

    And by WINKY WRIGHT like 3 times.

    Very good fighter and I liked him but never thought his chin was iron.

    His will was though thats for sure.
    Maybe not quite iron but he still was never knocked out and that has to count for something. How about rock jawed, iron will and very skilled? =)

    Man I must be crazy........ Ike didn't get dropped 3 times in the Winky fight did he?

    Blah blah blah on his chin. The topic was retired to early not chin debate...Either way Ike should have stuck around a little while longer and or fought more often
