    Should he retire?

    He WAS retired last night by a northwest-sider who I believe is a year older than him.

    War for Four? Yeah, four losses in a row for "El Terrible".

    Maybe he should try a "War for Five".

      He was a great warrior and gave us many great fights. He's not at the same level he used to be at and he made a good decision of calling it quits. He really has nothing left to prove.

          Yeah it's been a pleasure watching him but unless he is going to fight lower level comp he should probably hang em up or maybe take a year or two off and see how he feels.He is only like 30 I think......just to many wars.

              why should he last night he proved he's still good enough, to me he is the new champ shocking home dicision not as fast but still well in with a shout as a top pro why not go out on a high, but only he can make the decision and we all no boxers tend to make the wrong one but for the right reasons, one more time ERIK

                plust at the post fight he said something that he was feeling the shots more than normal so for him to acknowledge that is a good thing.....

                  It's not so much the fight thats the killer, it's the months of hard graft you have to put in to get in shape, your body tends to get you back for it at a later date

                    Way way to many hard fights ,It's better for him to go now then to stick around and get hurt .
                    You can just see in the last year or so that he hasn't been that same person.

                      You really need to watch the fight or stop smoking crack. Show some respect, he's one of the toughes and bravest fighters of our time, he's always been a warrior and given us many many great fights over his career.
