James Vick should retire before he can't make a living for himself

Just got off the phone with Overeem and he said it's no biggie.

Reem gets paid extremely good money to get KO'd.

Not to mention he had CTE like 10 KOs ago, so might as well be rich with CTE then poor with CTE.

Everyone has to make their own decisions, but nothing good will come from continuing to fight. He is 32, will never get near the title. At this point, he isn't even winning enough fights to make decent money unless he wants to go to Bellator. Even there he would probably win one, lose one until his mid thirties, and retire broke and injured.

He has been brutally KO'd 3 times in 14 months. He should have taken more time off, but he decided to roll the dice. He should transition to coaching or some other venture before he receives more brain damage. He never evolved and his whole style is dependent on him being 20+ pounds bigger then his opponents. Had he moved up to welterweight years ago, he might of saved his career, but his best win to this day is Joseph Duffy, but everyone will remember him for being on the end of some really crazy KOs.

Octagon doctor doesn't get it. In Texas that's how you hold up a dead deer to show off to all your buddies. The UFC just doesn't let you wear camo.

Difference is Reem has like 60 pro MMA fights and 40 pro kickboxing fights. Won the K-1 grand prix through a one night tournament, held multiple titles, and is 39 years old. Also, fought the biggest names in both MMA and kickboxing.

He's declining but isn't that obvious? Mad thing is, he's on a two fight TKO win streak.

People really discredit Overeem because of his chin as of late.

Vick is 31 and hasn't fought the best the UFC has to offer, and is getting KO'd left and right.

belly Thor for the win, he can get paid big bucks because he's a ex ufc fighter and that sponsor ship money. That is where he should go. Dazn & Paramount the next gen of MMA viewing. and did I mention sponsors?? sponsors for the win.
 
Been Ko’d badly in 3 of his last 4. I’m not sure he needs to retire quite yet, two of those losses are top 10 lightweights and the other is to an always dangerous Price. He had a pretty decent streak going before that. He needs a step down in competition, maybe he’s be more shot against a lower guy or cut him and let him try to earn his way back.

All of these are completely valid options. I will add a few as well:

"Sleepy" James Vick
James "The Vicktim" Vick
"Glass" James Vick
James "Did He Dieded" Vick

Well he’s probably about to be forced retired from the UFC... 4 loses in a row, 3 of which were brutal KTFOs. Whether or not he continues his career on the jobber leagues where he belongs is the question.

He would get plooked in Bellator or oneFC. Bare knuckle boxing might have just made a roster addition.

LOL

Poor guy - he just keeps getting KO'd in the most hilarious ways.

Also, Herb trying to straighten his legs out so they can lay him down and the medical guys is all "no no, you have to let him put weight on his neck." <36><36>
 
James Vick suffered the worst karma ever. He called GJ a punching bag, then he got KTFO and continues to get KTFO every time.

Well he won't be doing a lot of thinking regardless, so that pic is just rude in the context.
