        Only ones on that list I could probably still watch would be Tua and Toney. But I think Toney should retire too. I still think Tua has a little more fight left in there and is probably the most game out of these guys. But Rahman, Briggs, and the like should just stop.

            Has Danny Williams retired?

            If not, then Danny Williams should probably hang em up before Skelton ever does, but on the other hand i don't want williams to retire because his fights are so baldy entertaining.

            It'd be a sad day for heaveyweight boxing when Danny Williams decides to walk away from boxing.

              I read the other day that he has probably retired, that's why I didn't include him in the poll.

                  None of them should retire unless they want to or fail medical tests.

                  Never begrudge a man the opportunity to do what he loves.

                  They all know the health risks and it's their choice in life.

                    It's a sad day for heavyweight boxing when a warrior like Danny Williams retires.
