He was very talented guy with good boxing skills.

Why did he finish boxing career so early?

IMO he could be a World champion.

From BoxRec Wiki:

Hinton explained his reasons for retiring to Livefight.com: "I began to lose the desire that was needed to be victorious in battle, and a few other things that happened made me realize I needed to retire. ... There was something taking place inside me, spiritually and mentally, and it was causing me to tire of boxing. It was causing me to become confused about the whole idea of training and beating people up. ... Retiring was the bravest, most stand up decision I'd ever made, my feelings about boxing were changing and for the first time in my life I felt free."
