    Probably Gatti. I have a lot of love for the man. I realise he is lacking in skill but had so much guts and it was pretty apparent he didn't want to go. The brutal circumstances didn't help either.

          It'll suck for me when Roy's done and when Hopkins is done.

            yeah, it started for me in the douglas fight, and the beating lennox gave mike was rough as well. big fan of mike back in the day as a kid.

              For me it was Kostya. But by the time he retired he was past his best so I was happy to see him get out before he got seriously hurt. Tyson getting old, Morales getting old and MAB getting old were hard on me as well.

                  sorry. i try to post kostya highlights whenever i can. kostya was very underrated and seems to be unknown to a lot of people on here......
