From Champ to Stepping stone: Sad or necessary?

Sad some fighters don't know when its time to retire.

is that a real person in your avatar or what? Dat **** is freaky. I dont know I just like the picture. It is freaky.

You mean everyone can't be Danny Green. A true Legend. I have to give the ATG Green props though for giving Tarver, a young hungry lion an opportunity to take his crown.

Many fighters can’t let go for financial reasons /thread Something should be done to educate these fighters at a young age how not to blow their money when they make it big.

As long as they can keep it competitive its not a problem, I dont need to see Roy Jones get knocked out twice a year though. When its ATGs getting battered by nobodies it becomes a problem for me. is that a real person in your avatar or what? Dat **** is freaky.

What would you do, if you were 35 and the only way you know how to get a meal on the table for your family is by fighting? What would you do, let the media and fans dictate how much you had left in the tank? What would you do, if you felt you had more potential, more strength, lot's of will and LOT OF LOVE FOR THE FACT OF BEING A GLADIATOR??? You know the feeling of being victorious in the ring - there's no feeling to be compared, and I can only imagine the feeling is stronger when you're cheered by 20.000 fans... You never know when it's enough. Some got families to feed, others got great love for the game and others just think that they've got more left in the tank. One loss - should that dictate all of your accomplishments?

As long as they can keep it competitive its not a problem, I dont need to see Roy Jones get knocked out twice a year though. When its ATGs getting battered by nobodies it becomes a problem for me.

its sad,but it happens when you stick around to long and dont have it anymore,everyone can't be hopkins You mean everyone can't be Danny Green. A true Legend.
