He was already 46 fights in and going on 37 years old when he retired. How is that retiring early?

He was 36/37, but he wasnt no where near shot and still looked like he had plenty of years left in him tho.

He was on his way down, dropped in both of his last 2 fights. I hate Calzaghe but I don't begrudge him for leaving when he did

Calzaghe put in work for years. It's just that he took his own sweet time doing so. I can't fault him for retiring when he did even though there were some good fights out there left for him.

He got one of the hardest styles to beat in the ring, but due to his competition I don't know how well he fares against other HOF/ATG's.

According to Fighthype, Manny has chose to fight Timothy Bradley on April 12th


Don't really care to see them two fight again. 1st fight wasn't all that entertaining. Provodnikov/Bradley was the fight to make, but fukk it. Arum is the king of making rematches, just not the ones we care to see (except for Rios/Alvarado)

Very important match right here.......Bradley gets to prove whether he deserves his #3 spot on P4P lists and Pacquiao gets to prove that first fight was as much BS as we thought it was. Marquez will fight for the WBO 147 title in the fall/winter against the winner.

Now we just need to hear Rios/Alvarado III at 147 and Provodnikov-Mayfield and I'm sold

Thats cause he aint got no fukking fighters in lightwelter and welter.

The russian, bradley, marquez, and manny is all hes got. Meanwhile Goldenboy is stacked. Problem for floyd is that he has no one to fight in may, but i gurantee you his september opponent is gonna be fire. If Danny can get two more fights in and then fight floyd in may 2015 its gonna be crazy :wow:

shyt, I actually wanna see that fight too breh.

Mayfield's style is rough as fukk though. It's like he's Top Rank's version of Shawn Porter :heh:

But he been talking so much shyt about being ducked, he better show up if he ever got that fight
