we have a hair of
possible whole famed fighters at least one i'd say
is issue and uh... wiki right and shane mosley outfitted shoo-in is shane mosley
both of them however
retiring from the sport of boxing both of them forty years old let's start with
when he right he was quoted as saying after him
his loss to the man they called state chocolate you could say the kid
they cultured chocolate he said i'm going to call it a day i'm gonna chill
out play golf live life forty years old his game was defense it started with
defense he turned
that defensive strategy into often say to time
one hundred and fifty four pound champ what could you say
about ronald we see right robber
world-class tucked away in exports later
superbad sir
na disability performer has some people might have liked but such as a strong
keep you updated pics of master
he managed to do it he that he would do often to levy part because it is
county said
uh... but buggin an excellent career nothing be shamed okie was even
competitive in a few around twenty four people in saturday night which was
basically he was functioning more lets out a stepping stone but
he had a few moments and uh... unhappy that when he got up and i think opinion
it hope with his is resources so he will be meeting with something from something
in the back
with this loss ticket chocolate obviously it was his last flight and a
stellar career he was knocked down in the fifth round he lost a ten round
decision prior to that
he fought paul williams in two thousand nine
and then lost to bernard hopkins in two thousand seven
uh... certainly a stellar career his last win was two thousand six against
high court today
he won the welter weight title what would you say about some of his
all fights and
of those fights the notable wins
well i've been a little when i mean partly it would accuse so damages which
was she mostly was superb
uh... his that need to be able to keep hopkins a super vivienne he was always
group whether he knew he couldn't
he he really never got beaten card he wants whites but he was never
appeasement quieter and that's very much to his credit uh... and i think impart
that's what are you leaving the game impact are usually got his wits about
them he's creature ricky's clear of mind he clearly speech
uh... here today here's approached boxing was was one that i actually have
served to really extremely well in the long in the short term and i think will
treat serve him well in the long term as well from nineteen ninety three to
nineteen ninety eight he fought empty different countries i mean recall
glenn johnson the road warrior
you could certainly
even give that nickname to ronald leaky right at least the number two road
warrior you could say uh... i mean that he fought in the united states
luxembourg france germany monaco argentina england i mean what did you
say about those fights that he fought
on the road away from the united states and when he finally made his return
well he was fall no money
which is what all players who alton we're doing issue that's all the money
here at home but he told the money overseas
he went where the fights were and once put it in the ring one doesn't cure the
crowd was built into the complexion the crowd
windows and hear the accent to quell really is paying attention to
is the man across program in the ratings uh...
although it wouldn't matter where when he was playing and what he did have a
really powerful fan base here at the u_s_ in part because his fighting style
was not exciting it was not really what the american plate counts really look
forward to when they troma t_v_ to watch the fight
with was willing to write anemic
he was offered buys shingles lee and cried shane mosley to possibly saving
his career
because this is a sugar shane mosley that the possibility of twice
anne offered to fight
with the right amin you could say that that was possibly the number one
fight of rights career in which he beat shane mosley in a unanimous decision to
become the first undisputed
one hundred fifty four pound champion in twenty nine years certainly
reinvigorated his career and then he thought felix trinidad on may fourteenth
two thousand five an h_b_o_ pay-per-view fight
after trinidad came out of retirement
beat up on my orga and it will be right completely shut out felix trinidad so
far to ask you in the order of one and two
the more
irony said notable you could say the biggest fights of
wiki rights career which one would you put first which one would you put sec
totally perpetrated outfit for steve mentioned uh... to returned after being
away from the ring
because china dot was such a name freighter and rita internationally gnome
fighter i think that was the that was maybe the biggest one of his career
money and with this bill robert
uh... would you say that week you write is
hall of fame materialistic hall of fame worry
art certificate or contributor people hall of fame rule or
what was accomplished tom
and for much less
agreeable and although it's a great any technical cemetery and why would people
exactly say that he is not the whole thing material what's their argument
practices workmen that you thought of one realm
whether i mean he was of new support for the commissary was uh... here the contra
costa
uh... he always does have a burglary would pick a shots very carefully never
lost control in utero wild man in the rain
uh... so he was uh... review with racism transfer imprint populating
and always contemplating move
uh... head of the actions which would be taking
again he was he was critical referred to you what a relief for the average worker
that's why people question
again with the right retires at the a of forty-five at least thinks he is hall of
fame worthy of robert that's all i know that
you also agree with that uh... thank you very much for the time to follow robert
on twitter at boxing underscore
com and follow his writing at
boxing dot com robert thank you so much for talking to him
