DLH stuck around too long....Great fighter in his day that used his name to capitalize on his past best years..

The Pacquiao bout was a huge mistake...Even if he won it was a mistake...the fight will haunt his legacy

Time will heal the wound. I do not know about you, but when I think of an Ali, I think of Frazier, Foreman and Liston; not Spinks, Holmes and Berbick....

Oscar probably did go on too long, and it will take a little to get the bad taste out your mouth, but you will..... It could be worse, eh Evander?

I don't have a bad taste about Oscar fighting so long I just hate to see great fighters do it to themselves....But with all fairness since you mentioned Evander.....Oscar was never that caliber of downhill and he more then likely could beat a lot of guys at 154 just he can not compete with the young guys in their prime anymore

Ali was just sad...Broke my heart to see him lose to guys like Berbick in the end

When it comes to fellows like Evander I think the commission needs to say enough is enough

No, that cannot happen, the only justification for this sport is that a fighter has the right to take the risk if he wishes. And if Holyfield is fit enough to pass the medicals, then he should be licenced to box.

The sad thing is, the never say die attitude that gave us the Holyfield/Bowe trilogy, Holyfield/StewartI, Holyfield/Dokes and Holyfield/QawiI, is the same attitude that makes a 46 year old man think he is capable of becoming World Champ once more....

Anyone who thinks ODLH should still be fighting or should have 1 more fight is def. not seeing the truth here...

I thought he should have retired after the Mayorga win.

I forget who it was that said that they felt Monzon could have continued to fight after his win over Valdez II. Yeah Monzon was 35, fucker had partied all his life drank, smoked and all. Not to mention he had 100 fights... I'm surprised he made it that far.

Yutaka Niida, I think he could have stuck around longer.
Michael Spinks was only 32 when he retired after the Tyson loss.
Brian Mitchell 1st time around.
Masahiko Harada was only 26 when he retired although he did have 62 fights.
Myung-Woo Yuh was only 29 and dominantly won his last 2 fights.
Yoko Gushiken was 26 when he retired after his only loss. Another Naz? ? ?

Hagler left the scene because he knew he would never get the only fight he wanted which was the rematch with Leonard, he avenged his only other losses and was offered other deals but he just walked away, tired of playing games.

honestly thought that Winky was gonna do the exact same thing the way he reacted after the Taylor fight, he deserved that win
