    Yes he looked terrible in the RJJ fight, and he looked bad in his last fight before the RJJ one. Plus he supposedly passed out in the dressing room. So thats a sign that he needs to hang em up.

    I think he's had a fantastic career. He's got to have made a ton of money in the process.but yeah I think he should retire. I hope he doesn't go ahead with a move up to heavyweight. I think it's too dangerous, all the signs are there of a fighter in decline

    He should but he wont.Going out on top would be nice.Spotty stream last night but prior in with Ornelus he was tagged early on more than Ive seen last few years....not fond of promoters slash fighters,one or the other I say.GBP seems a borderline syndicate at times.

    He really should, but I won't mind seeing him getting shown up silly at heavyweight.

    No, he should keep going on like the energizer rabbit till he gets seriously hurt or till age catches on him for good.

    I voted no, I want him to have a meaningful fight to retire on, maybe a Chad Dawson, maybe a fight with the winner of Pavlik Martinez, maybe Paul Williams, maybe David Haye or Danny Green.

    I don't think he looked as bad as Ice claims, the fight was at a pretty good pace for old timers. I'm not sure about him collapsing or whether there is any truth to that but if he wants one more fight, the chance to be the underdog and the chance to further cement his legacy I say let him try.


    Now Roy Jones on the other hand.......

    He should have hung them up after the Pavlic fight and gone out with a bang.

    I say yes. One more fight and give it to Glen Johnson for B-Hop's last fight.
