Champions should retire with glory, if they don’t want their glory to become tarnished.

Sad stories of champions

In May 2013, Sir Alex Ferguson decided to retire after helping M.U win the 20th English championship, and his 13th Premier League title.

It wasn’t until 2018 that Sir Alex’s rival Arsene Wenger parted ways with Arsenal. Unfortunately, the French football “Professor”, who single-handedly built the North London team into an empire in England and Europe, was fired when the crowd’s trust in him was exhausted. exhausted.
People believed Wenger should have left Arsenal decades ago. Sir Alex and Wenger are both great in the world of football, but one person left at the peak of fame, the other in his glory faded.

In the boxing world, Mike Tyson once belonged to the elite class. But until today, “Steel Mike” is just like “Chi Pheo”, the brilliant victories of an illustrious career thrown into the trash.

Everything could have been better if Mike Tyson had stopped after being punched by Lennox Lewis in the 8th round of the epic fight in 2002. The American boxer tried to salvage his moribund career with 2 fights. fought with Brit Danny Williams and Kevin McBride but both lost miserably. In 2005, Mike Tyson hung up his gloves with the mindset of being out of time.

In professional sports, leaving while at the peak is the best way to keep your name.

On May 26, 2018, Real Madrid defeated Liverpool 3-1 to win the Champions League for the third consecutive time. Right at the post-match press conference, Cristiano Ronaldo hinted that the relationship between him and the Royal team had come to an end.

But most of all, on May 31, just 5 days after reigning at the top of Europe, coach Zinedine Zidane held a press conference, announcing his decision to resign. At that time, the whole football world was shocked, but reality proved that Zidane and Ronaldo were right, they bid farewell to Bernabeu at the peak of glory.

Lewis Hamilton, where is the limit?

The 2023 F1 season for Lewis Hamilton has become extremely disappointing. No one can remember the last time the British rider started this badly.

With 7 times standing on the top podium, Lewis Hamilton along with the legendary Michael Schumacher are the athletes with the most F1 championships in history. Hamilton could have monopolized the number 1 position with 8 crowns in 2021, if the last race in Abu Dhabi did not have an incident that has so far been described by the British media as a scandal. The darkest in F1 history.

At the age of 38 and racing F1 for 17 years, many people believe that Hamilton should end his illustrious career, if the British driver does not want to damage his reputation. If Lewis continues to be greedy and blind, he could step into the footsteps of many sports legends such as Wenger, Mike Tyson, Serena Williams, and even Schumacher.

Hamilton needs to refer to Schumacher to find the right time to retreat for himself. In 2010 and at the age of 41, Schumacher decided to return to F1 after 4 years of rest. But it was a disastrous decision for the German legend. Michael only finished the 2010, 2011 and 2012 seasons in 9th, 8th and 13th place respectively before retiring again.
