Lennox Lewis did it
GSP did it. (Even if he does fight Khabib,his legacy is already assured,and his first "career" was over,as champion.
Khabib could possibly do it.
It is possible that Stipe OR DC will have this oppurtunity as well.
Cejudo did it,but i dont think his intention was to retire at all,just overplayed his hand.
I get it that they might not be your particular favorite fighter but people just get so bent out of shape when guys want to retire on their terms. Its masterful if you can pull it off. No one is required to fight until they lose.
There will ALWAYS be someone new. You cant go on forever. Best to make the choice before its made for you.
