    I wouldn't Juan Manuel Marquez, James Toney, B-Hop, Roy Jones Jr., Antonio Tarver, GLenn Johnson's time might be running out. Edison Miranda, Kermit Cintron, Zab Judah, maybe Paulie Malignaggi, hopefully not.

        James Toney, B-Hop, Roy Jones Jr., Antonio Tarver, Glenn Johnson are just too olds, I agree with the others and I think Antony Mundine's too.

          thats what I thought as well because guys like DLH Vazquez and both Marquez brothers have had long successful careers

          when I think of burnout I think of young cats who may not be in this for long due to their styles or the fights they have been in to get to where they are

          going on that

          Katisidis- strong as a bull but gets hit with everything thrown at him and really cannot adjust to anything other than warring

          Juan Diaz- his style and lack of true punching power won't lend him a long career

          Yuriorkis Gamboa- they are putting him in fast and with his style and some of the rough edges he carried over from the amateur ranks makes me think he wont have a long career

          Fernando Angulo- fights at one speed and its either I hit you and hit you and hit you or oh **** hes hitting me. He has been rumored to have a somewhat shaky chin so that could be a factor once he steps it up

            Funny you mention JCC Jr cuz he'll get there pretty quick as much head shots as he takes. In 2 of his last 3 fights he's eaten so much leather from Vanda and Cuello it's not even funny. He showed in the rematch with Vanda that he doesn't have to do that.

            Marquez looks like he's diminished, but not shot. James Toney, Antwun Echols, etc.
