    That's how I feel, as well.

    I think his chin was probably that of a normal world-class guy in his prime years... You hit him hard and clean with one he didn't see coming and he goes down, hurt a little bit.

    But later on, after the move back down? The guy was catatonic from shots that seemed like flash knockdown material

    I am resigned to the fact that the guy will retire, eventually, with permanent brain damage.

    Which is even more of a shame when you consider he'll be able to make fairly good money on-air if he's still coherent.

    Well this is it of course....he has options, he is probably {DEFINITELY!} the best color-commentator on HBO, with the continued fighting, all he does is end his involvement in boxing completely and deny himself continued pay-checks and exposure in his twilight years.

    You think it will dent his ego at all?
