finally, you had a great career champ

Damn, that's a shame but makes sense. He pulled out of fighting Tony Moran, a security colleague of mine, a year or two ago in Liverpool. Would have loved to have seen him live on that occasion.

Come on Champ, last year and please stop after

[DonutHunter]

Oh no! Roy Jones will retire on December 31st 2017 at 11:59 pm!!

He's doing what he loves, he doesnt need the money, he's a fighter and fighters dont ever retire in spirit. Enjoy yourself champ, its your life. And if people still wanna pay to watch you box, so be it...ITS YOUR LIFE, not anyone else's.

I don't want to sound like I'm telling him what to do, but I worry before every new fight that this is the one that does the damage he can't recover from. I'll be glad when he retires.

Best way to exit the sport is to exit with your wealth and health in tact; you have both champ and nothing else to prove.

I hope the commentary gig pays off for him and he has his taxes in order this time.
