    Fighters Who Left The Sport Without Taking Beatings Near The End Of There Careers?

    Often great fighters leave the sport of boxing, and at the end of there careers they began to take beatings of fighters they would of licked in there prime. It's happened way to often etc Ezzard Charles, Julio Cesar Chavez, etc etc.

    But name me some fighters who left the sport of boxing without taking beating's at the end of there careers.

    Here's a few........Charley Burley, Jimmy McLarnin, Rocky Marciano, Carlos Monzon, Marvin Hagler, Ricardo Lopez, **** Tiger, Jose Torres.
