How did Ike Quartey fade away so quickly?

[RichCCFC]

He was obviously an amazing fighter but he only really had a few big fights.

He got rich from the vargas and oscar fights,, then retired to africa and lived like a king,,

Cameback a few years later, and had some success and landed big fights with forrest, which i thought ike got robbed in, and then fought winky and took a legit loss,, then retired again with a bunch of money

He doesnt need to fight, he is set for life and thats why you dont see him anymore

This is great news if true... Hopefully he's smart and can make it last a lifetime.

Its true, he owns a lot of property over there and I think he even owns a hotel if I remember correctly.

Plus he really didnt fade away quickly,, he had a long title reign from 93-99

That's what makes fighters like hopkins so special.
