Steve Harvey didn't quit. He became more famous.

Yep, and his whole shtick is a rip-off of Richard Pryor.

Calling it quits over some backlash? My dude, just don't read the comments. Otherwise, they'll never let you forget.

Guess they don't make them as tough as we thought.

People in the U.S. think Australia is full of men like Crocodile Dundee, but in reality the men there are as soft as Charmin. Even the transplants are affected.

If only more boxers would retire after their worst night post prime.

Why? Just because they had a bad night? Is that what people in other professions should do when they have a bad day at work?
I don't think a boxer should be deprived of making a living because they took an L.

Americans used to be tough but there's too many ****y, loud-mouthed, wannabe tough guys now that think they're tough but in reality are cowards which is why they own so many guns and are paranoid of anything and anyone who doesn't look and think exactly the same way they do.

All hail the lazy, ignorant, entitled, spoiled brat dictator Trump! Trumpets unite!

The guy screwed up , he apologized, that's really all that is necessary as far as I'm concerned. Yeah , it was a mistake but we all make them. His just happened to be in front of T.V. cameras. The guy sounds a little soft to retire just from people clowning him on social media. I don't use the stuff so it wouldn't affect me. Maybe he should do is the same. It's just words , words from strangers , which makes them even more meaningless. Man up Lieutenant Dan !
Nobody died , it wasn't a big deal. In a month everyone will even forget that it happened.

If this was the case for ring announcers, Michael Buffer would have been done years ago.

I don't think boxing is like working for AT&T or any jobs regular ppl tend to have first off.

And I mentioned bad nights post prime not just a bad night or an L. I think boxing is a unforgiving sport & I'd like to see less guys 40yrs+ boxing. Idek that its great to fight past 35 for most boxers. Look up great fighters & 80%, 90% weren't who they used to be past 33ish.

But I get it for a lot of guys. They spend a decade building up their name & then they get paid for that name past prime. Thing is plenty of guys get paid great earlier now so I'd like to see guys hang them up earlier.
