Comments Thread For: Jared Anderson Is Here For a Good Time, Not a Long Time

I feel like so many fighters say this when they are young. Then they have setbacks or get bored in life and suddenly they’re in their 30s still fighting. Hard to find many fighters who actually retired wealthy in their 20s and never came back.

Yeah, I remember a young heavyweight who swore up and down the road in every interview he'd retire by the time he was 30, and yet Joe Parker is still fighting.

Bernard Hopkins promised his dying mother he'd retire by 40.

Very few young men are disciplined enough to bank their money, he most likely will find a woman and an entourage that will drain him ,forcing him to continue, but if his heart is not in it ,talent will only take him so far.

Danny Willams is 49 and has been knocked out more than a dozen times. He cant get a license in GB but hes still making money on the euro circuit because he loves the sport. Joe Parker may have the same mentality. It seems Anderson does not.
