              Well, I mean that is the ideal career trajectory for a boxer ain't it? You build up to bigger and bigger fights, then hope you've got enough banked to call it quits when (or ideally before) you inevitably start to lose.

              Nothing sadder than old boxers fighting on for the paydays long after they've passed their best, but all too common a story.

              On that note it's nice to see RJJ seems to have some decent promo and training work in Russia for Hyrunov - I really hope he can hang 'em up now.
