What happened to Joe Mesi? Did he leave boxing for good? What a mistake of him to choose politics instead. He lost the nomination for...senator, was it? Before he first retired he looked like a really hot prospect. Ko'd DaVarryl Williamson in 1 round. Nobody ever did that, before or since. And beat up that disgusting Jorge Luis Gonzalez. I so enjoyed watching that. It was up on some site before, dunno if it still is. But that Jirov fight took everything out of him.
Where is Mesi?

from what I understand he's fit enough to fight & the best doctors cleared him but where he is a draw is in buffalo.he put 15000-20000 people in the arena there but the new York state athletic commision wouldn't sanction any of his future fights.so he figured why bother.I'm sure Nevada & California wouldn't give him a licence either.he was fighting in small states with minimal support so he new becoming world champion was not going to happen.he retired again.Comment

A brain injury is still a brain injury. He did the right thing to retire from boxing. Mesi was decent but nothing special. Had he stepped up and fought the best he would've lost anyway.Comment

^^^ agreed he had a great punch and good speed but as Vassiliy Jirov showed a good technical fighter would destroy him.
He's lucky it wasn't Lewis or a Klitschko that he fought that night.Comment
