"At the moment I'm definitely going to retire," he told Setanta Sports News.

"As long as I win and I win in style then it will be my last fight.

He'll retire, he won't, he will, he won't, will, won't, will, won't, will, won't, will, won't, hands hurt, will, won't, will, won't, will, won't, Frank Warren lawsuits, will, won't, will, won't, will, won't, will, won't, will, won't, will.

Yada, yada, yada...

Should he stay or should he go now?

Should he stay or should he go now?

If he goes there will be trouble

And if he stays it will be double

So, come on and let Joe know...

Should he stay or should he go?

I’m tired of hearing it as well.

There should be another poll answer: If this was his last fight he should’ve fought Kelly Pavlik.

Not sure

All I know is that Roy should retire after the fight. His reflexes have left him, and we’ll never see that old, great style again. Not being able to put away the mummified remains of Tito was the writing on the wall.

I really do think Roy took it easy on Tito so he wouldn’t embarrass him in NYC. It wouldn’t be the first time someone thought Roy did such a thing (Mike MacCallum).

I'm actually tired of all fighters talking retirement

De La Hoya, Mayweather, Calzaghe etc etc . . . .

I won’t believe any of them until they’re outta the sport for at least 5 years
