He retired ages ago as far as I know. He said during commentary at one of Mundine's shows a while back that he was thinking about coaching Nathan, I could be wrong though.

a while ago barry asked him during commentary about coming back and he laughed it off and said he would never come back.
he also mentioned his adrenal fatigue as one of the reasons that sidelined him long enough to make the decision

He is training his brother now.

Paul has been in Nathan's corner recently.

Yes he is retired, was a great boxer in his prime just couldn't get over that final hurdle and become a world champion.

To be fair though he was unlucky in one of the fights with Ademek and look how good Ademek has gone on to be.
