As a moderately successful gambler; None. I can make money off of them.
The more Hendo fights the more money I will make off of him.
As a person who doesnt support himself through fighting, I would prefer someone retiring earlier rather than later. I understand someone like Mike Pyle has to pay his bills and making 100k a year fighting and teaching seminars is his passion, but there is a time to move on.
My list is
Hendo
TJ Waldburger
Mike Pyle
Dennis Siver
Brendan Schaub
Big Foot
Mir

of the listed fighters, i'd agree on hendo and shogun.
some others
struve -- might legit die in the cage if he catches a dim mak to the heart.
big nog -- guy is nearly 50 in fight age.

Might as well add Lil Nog into the mix.
Bisping is on his way to becoming fade material.

I don't really want to see anyone retire until it's their own decision. But above all, why is Miesha Tate on that list? She's only 28 years old and is on a three fight win streak. The only two opponents she has lost to in the last five years are two of the most elite female fighters Ronda Rousey and Cat Zingano.
Who are you or any fan for that matter to say what should or shouldn't happen in these fighters' carers? I can see people in their lives suggesting that certain fighters who are older and have suffered a lot of injuries or taken a lot of damage might want to think of a career past fighting. But some of the fighters you named aren't in that position. Miehsa Tate and Cathal Pendred, both still in their twenties and doing well in their careers make no sense at all. Bottom line- your list is bad and you should feel bad about it.

Lol uh oh, lots of strap ons itt. 22 to be exact.
Hendo's an obvious one for me, agree with Shogun as well. Sometimes I see his age and I don't believe he's that young. I think Waldburger is a good one too, the guy has been ko'd 7 times and he's only 27, time to find something else to do before your brain gives out on you. If Baroni isn't already retired he should be. I actually am kind of on board with the JDS one as well, I was always a big fan of his but the guy really hasn't improved with his time off and he's taken a few pretty terrible beatings not to mention at hw where the shots add up quicker. Seeing him move along the cage with his hands down taking shots against Stipe was tough to watch.
