    Retreads on the downside of solid pro careers induce a peculiar melancholy.
    Yes, it's THEIR journeys, but it's sort of like watching Nat Geo animal shows.
    The young lions tear apart the wildebeests in a bloody mess.
    That's how the ecosystem works.
    But it makes one want to look away most of the time.

      Ali and Commey both fighting the mysterious "TBA" in their comeback bouts. My prediction is that one of the two of them will lose to Mr TBA.

        Bad idea for both.

        Not really related but if you want to see career decline, check out Joel "the Love Child" Julio, who was I think, ESPN's prospect of the year ages ago and finished off his career with an 18 fight losing streak and lost his last fight to a guy making his pro debut.

          I remember when Sadam Ali was supposed to be the next big thing. He should just stay retired at 36.

                  I don’t even remember that.

                  Did they say that before or after he dethroned a shop worn Cotto?
