Enjoy your retirement Jon - a good honest pro a credit to the game

Great heart and punch power. Joy to watch. Will miss his action style. Good time to retire.

Top man. I actually quickly spoke to him as he was leaving the Alti arena last week. Wish him all the best, which is what I should have said to him last week..... rather than, "I enjoyed the fight". Ha. I was excited still..... Ha...

Hope he does well in what ever he does....

I think he wants to be a Barry McGuigan and do commentating etc on TV. That's the impression I get whenever he has a mic in his hand anyway.

Will always remember the Hatton fight, both cut to fuck and scrapping away.
Enjoy your retirement Jon

Agreed i think he will be better then the current commentators

Tough fighter. Long career. Seems like a million years ago when he was fighting Augustus, Dunne and the like.

im glad he has made the right move, he is a role model for what is dedication in this sport. always had me on the edge of the seat should go into commentating now will be better then most comes across as very articulate
