      I think Oscar will try to bleed one more fight out of him. I don't know whether Bernard will bite though. They do seem to be trying to land him one more.

        He really did look done in his last fight. I think he needs to hang them up now.

              I'm a big fan but I admit he looked really old his last fight (and even against winky which I failed to see at the time). He should retire I don't see any good opponent left.

              There was some crazy talk about possible fight with Pavlik or Trinidad. Neither make much sense. The only fight that is half way sane is with Roy Jones, just because of their past.

              I'm sure its hard for him to walk away though, just like everyone else. Been boxing your entire life it must difficult to leave it.

                  I agree, he did look old in the Calzaghe fight. The thing is, the old man managed to lose by an SD against Calzaghe who is regarded as one of the top P4P guys in the game! I can see why some still want him to fight because he could still beat most guys.

                  With this said, I'd like him to retire. He's got nothing left to prove. IBHOF is a lock.

                    That slappy whore Calzaghe couldn't manage to scathe him. He should retire though but he'll probably fight till he's 50....
