    It's hard to retire when you're as good as Dre. He was still young enough to beat a lot of guys. I'm sure its tough looking at tv, knowing FULL WELL you could beat the guys you're looking at.

    So I’ve only been into boxing about 9-10 months. I kept seeing this dude pop up around superstars and I’m like who this goofy one eyed dude.
    But I kept hearing his name. And the more I learn about boxing the more I learn what he meant to his era.
    Now I’m watching his old fights and listening to his speeches. Dude really was one of the greatest to ever do it

      Yeah man, I got into boxing after the first fight with Kovalev, and with people thinking he lost that fight and the controversial stoppage in the second fight it kinda soured me on him. Listening to idiots didn't help. But then I heard a few interviews with him, heard him say some things I really agreed with so I decided to dig deeper into his career and he really was special. Just so damn smart in the ring. HE really should have been the mongoose...though I guess I never watched Archie Moore 😂
