RE: Athletes should be Allowed to Rise Again

True never write anyone off but how many chances does one need. 2 world title fights and he is just not good enough. Many sportsmen struggle to pack it in and hang around like a bad smell for way too long. Money is not the driving factor anymore for the majority and that was the main reason for being successful so they have to rely on desire instead which sometimes is not enough as they are not desperate.

Sort:  

Agreed. My point though is that if desire is still present then they should be encouraged to have another go and not simply discouraged. If it doesn't work out no-one will probably need to convince them about retirement.
