When Boxers Should Have Retired

[-Kev-]

Jones: After Tarver win.
Jones second chance at a decent retirement: After Lacy win.

Marquez: After Pacquiao TKO.

Hopkins: 6 years ago, after Pavlik win, but after Cloud win would have been fine as well. He should definitely retire after Kovalev, win or lose.

J. Taylor: Now. It's easy to say after the brutal Pavlik, Froch, Abraham TKO losses, but as a fan I didn't want him to go out like that. He beat Soliman, became champion again, put his demons to rest. Retire now as champion. He can say he has at least one close legit win over a prime Bernard Hopkins at MW.

Pacquiao: After Bradley rematch.

-Mosley after beating Margarito.
-Tyson after beating Ettiene.
-Hatton after beating Malignaggi.
-Martinez after beating Chavez jr.

Mosley made at least 8+million after the marg fight just off his name so its hard to make someone through away that much money.

I don't think Taylor has put his demons to rest, have you seen his latest vids? The guy has gone bat **** crazy, I don't think he'll ever be the same again as a boxer or a human being. He should just have retired after Pavlik.

Pacquiao shouldn't retire, there's plenty of names at 140-147 he can still beat. For me personally, if Pac is going down to 140, I'd like to see him take the title from Garcia and beat Matt at 140 and then close out his career. In one year he would have beaten the best guy in the division and it's most dangerous puncher. Nothing more left to do.

Hoya after the Mayweather fight.

Marquez after the 4th fight with Pac.

sergio after the murray fight

[Showtime..]

Floyd after the Canelo fight. He would had gone out on such a high note.

Then two fights later against Maidana where he got tagged constantly showed his age.

The Canelo fight was hardly a high note, it only mattered to those who believed the hype. Floyd should have stayed retired 5 years ago.
