Is it time for Holyfield to hang up his gloves

oct it was time seven years ago. I sure as hell wouldn't want to take 7 years of unneccessary beatings. I think he might already be brain damaged from all the punishment. Seriously...how many wars has he been in.

oct it was time seven years ago.

So what is motivating him to continue fighting...is he short on cash...(I know he has like 13 kids or something like that)

he sould retire. he is a legend and has done more than enough for the sport to be remembered as one of the greats!

Definately time. He cannot compete with the cream of the crop. If this was a 1998 Holy, he would have easily beaten Sultan(whose nothing special). The 44 year old Holy, just cant be first in these fight with these younger guys. Holy is losing now because of his age...

i think he should retire. he had at 44 a title chance, not something a lot of people had, and lost the fight. now he should just enjoy his family and support boxing on another way. if he continues i see it very difficult for him to have another title shot.

i would prefer if he would retire but if he wants to continue its his decision

its been past that time. but if holyfield wants to fight then let him. he knows the risk involved. Spot on post

IMO He should have retired after losing badly to Larry Donald.......He should defintely retire now and not a second later.

i give him props for everything he has achieved in his career but it's time to go evander. He should've retired after the Toney fight

its been past that time. but if holyfield wants to fight then let him. he knows the risk involved.

I included a poll...

Is it time for Holyfield to give it up or continue boxing http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=3063633 Like I said in another thread i say he should retire. Hes had a good career and has nothing left to prove. Hes fought the best fighters in his era and he should just move on. But you can't stop a man for doing what he loves. The only thing I can do is hope he doesn't get hurt.
