It seems alot of fighters are coming iuif retirement - why? I can only assume because of financial problems. The best thing to do for their health is create a over 45 category where people can compete at their age level before someone gets really hurt.

Even that would be crazy because guys over a certain age should not be getting hit in the head by anyone regardless of age. If they make it safe with guys wearing 14 oz gloves and even head gear then it could be something but its pretty sad when guys have to keep fighting long after they've lost the desire to and lost the physical capabilities because they need the money and they don't know how to make it anyway else. I mean look at Tyson the other month he looked like he wanted to be anywhere else in the world instead of walking to that ring but when someone's giving you 25 million dollars to do so it's just hard to say no to that
