All of the above.
Cool... we're getting onto something here.

I also think James Toney should retire... the whole steroids things... getting FAT... and having a few losses put together after he was undefeated for such a long time...

UNLESS... by some miracle he can lose all of that fat and compete as a Middleweight again... I reckon he could still do something there!

Other than that... it should be "LIGHTS OUT" for "LIGHT OUT" if you ask me... okay... that was a bad joke!:thumbsup:
Morales<< maybe to late he may be damaged already
Vargas<< he is damaged already
Jeff Lacy<< before he gets hurt bad
Vernon Forest< same as above
Holifield: slower then molases ARTURO GOTTI: bloks most punches with his face ROY JONES: one hard punch from another KO loss MORALES : too many times thru the grinder VARGAS : totally shot ,one more shot and he'll have to be spoon fed the rest of his life.:thumbsdown:

Ain't he only 30... and has only been a Professional Boxer for 6 years... and his one and only defeat was against Joe Calzaghe... POUND FOR POUND... The World's Best Ever Super Middleweight? Sure?
Gatti for sure. Toney for damn sure.
erik morales, arturo gatti, evander holyfeild, oliver mcCall, virgil hill, rjj and james toney.
Would it be fair to say that "EVERY FIGHTER OVER 40 SHOULD RETIRE???":D
No, Bernard Hopkins is still ballin.
hopkins is still looking sharp so he should go on, he's always going to be 1 loss from retirment though.
I thought he retired straight after he kicked Antonio Tarver's ass? I know that he is still recognised as a World Light Heavyweight Champion... but he could just vacate the belts can't he? What's he gonna do... have a rematch with Tarver? Throw himself at Paul Briggs (I wouldn't mind seeing that happen... it'd be good for my main man Paul Briggs... getting a credibly victory and all... or bad if he loses)? Go for that Polish Adamek? Or challenge Chad Dawson? Or go back down to Middleweight? I reckon he should vacate his belts and retire for good... he has got nothing left to prove... there will be no shame!!!
he stated after retiring that he'll have 3 more fights and is signed to fight winky wright next at a catchweight of 170lb, calzaghe is the fight he should take he has a chance of being a 3 weight champ if he done that although imo he'd lose.
Tyson here is my thoughts on Lacy to be honest even before the Joe fight he looked to me like a guy that was getting hit to clean to often. and I didn't thnk he was learning after every fight the opposite he was getting hit more and more often now the very last fight I really beleive he could have easily lost the fight if the Russian would have kept the pressure on the punches he was landing were clean and hard.So in my mind Lacy is in the similar situation that Medric Taylor he is damaged good now and he used to be a p4p guy. I would like to see him quit before he gets hurt.
Hopkins has plenty more left. I'm not even going to get into the Taylor bs, but he will beat Winky, and should definately go after Calzaghe, which I think Hopkins will win. I would love to see Hopkins after all he's done.

these guys are being offered mega $$$$ to fight joe and they dont seem interested, calzaghe imo is on another planet from these guys and has been for a long time.
Just wondering but who has he beat? And what is his record?
