Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali after fotc.

I didn't because I feel that both were already past their primes when it happened.

[r.burgundy]

No he didn't.

The only fight out of those four possible match-ups came on March 3, 2000, when he defended his crown against Trinidad in Las Vegas. Reid enjoyed some advantage during the first six rounds, having dropped Trinidad in the third, and with the fight being close on all three judges' scorecards. He was dropped in round seven, however, and subsequently suffered a detached retina and three more knockdowns in round eleven, before losing the world title by a twelve round unanimous decision.

No he didn't. He had 4 fights after Trinidad. He did have eye problems, specifically a droopy eye, but after Tito he looked hesitant to engage his opponents. Nothing like the fighter who was brimming with confidence before he fought Trinidad.

A detached retina does not mean blindness. Many fighters have had corrective surgery and came back successfully.
