            In theory great fighters should retire when it is clear they can't win at the absolute highest level anymore. If they can't achieve anything great any longer there isn't any point in these great fighters adding ordinary wins to their resumes. However Boxing has changed and when you retire you have to be entirely shot and as Tarver isn't that so I don't think he'll retire. Expect to see something like Tarver-Woods II or god forbid Tarver-Jones IV

              Theres only two main reasons that should keep Tarver in or out of the ring.
              Health & Money. If Tarver can get some good money for a fight he should continue, but not if he feels his health maybe jeopardize.

                I feel Antonio only has about 5 to 10 years left.


                If he wants to fight, he should continue to.

                  I think technically he should retire because I dont think he can beat the best in or around his weight division. But I mean he could probably still beat some good guys and make some money, but his top flight days are over.
