Rigo- the guy barely fights and when he does its against someone nobody has ever heard of in Japan or somewhere irrelevant and he still makes it a boring snooze fest. Ultra talented, avoided by most at his weight but not thrilling in the least even against inferior opponents.
PAC - once a whirling dervish of a fighter, he now is a more refined thoughtful fighter which takes away a lot of what made him so exciting to watch every time out. He has nothing left to prove short of beating Floyd if a rematch happens at some point. He gave us many great fights but watching him against overmatched guys even at his advanced age has become tiresome.
Wlad He ruled a weak heavyweight division for about 10 years, seemingly never giving us a great fight against top notch competition. Early KO losses to less than stellar opponents will always be held against him by those ranking him amongst dominant champions. He bored the fk out of us so many times over the years with the hit and clinch style that he adapted to after the KO losses. If he just retired would he even be missed at this point with the young guys we have out there?
Stevenson is there a more irrelevant champion in boxing today? This guy went from a explosion on the scene with a great one round KO of Dawson to irrelevant in the course of a few years. Hasn't had a big fight since and doesn't look like he will unless Beiterbiev becomes a player soon...
Broner we've seen what he brings, seemingly a waste of exquisite talent in a lazy, immature , man-boy ... Many saw him as Floyds successor now he's relagated back to beating overmatched opponents while somehow picking up titles along the way. Always trouble outside the ring but seldom trouble for top level guys inside the ring, it seems he could be lingering around just to be beaten handily again the next time he steps up in competition...
Would you even miss these guys should they retire tomorrow?
