      I don't even know he was able to have a conversation

      James is punchie and to be honest Shane you have been lucky but battered in your last few fights so get out why you still can talk, have your looks and money. History has already been made!

            Shane got killed in his divorce. Plus hes got the 20 something year old model girlfriend. Hes not retiring anytime soon so get used to seeing his name out there again.

                  Toney isn't the ideal person to advise people on when to retire.
