    I cant see this happening. If he comes back he will still be one of the best in the division but that says more about the division than it does about him. Joshua beat him, just, but there is no way Wlad has got any better since then but AJ surely has. Fury would likely find it easier in a Wlad rematch, ive seen his latest training footage he looks in better shape now than he did then.

    But after that i think he would be a really tough fight for any of the rest. He tires as age has definatly caught up with him but his legs can go 12 and he is experienced enough to know how to deal with the tiredness but other than that he is technically way better than the likes of Wilder, Ortiz, Parker, Whyte so for some portion of a fight he is going to be in full control and the rest of the fight these guys have some serious experience to get through to make the most of a tired Wlad.

    Maybe the separation has left a bitter taste and he has a lot of anger to take out which he feels he may as well be paid £10mil for to let go of.

    Having said that, I hope he stays retired. He went out in a great fight, faculties and money in place. No need IMO, but fighters are geared differently.

    You would think that Klitschko made wiser financial decisions than RJJ.

    Sad the way he has had to continue fighting because he needs the money. His legacy damaged massively

    He isn't ever coming back and if he did he'd be beaten by most of the top 10.
    Retired fantasy Wlad is supposedly good enough to blow through most of the division , but mention his loss to Fury and he becomes the shot to bits guy who could no longer pull the trigger , or the guy who was on the way out against sub-par Bryant Jennings 4 years ago.
    Jennings who was green made him look poor and he isn't good enough to be ranked in the top 10 right now in his prime.

    Whyte is a lot more dangerous than Jennings was and Wlad is a lot more older now. The shot that hurt Chisora badly in round one would put Wlad down on his knees. Old Wlad whose "reflexes were gone" 4 years ago could get badly hurt by a Whyte left hook and could possibly finish the fight face down like Lucas Browne.

    I'm not sure it's wise him coming back but he can demolish Whyte for sure.

    "When Roy decided to take Russian citizenship, it became clear that he was facing big tax problems. On September 10 of this year, I flew to the United States, in his hometown of Pensacola, to meet with his lawyer John Wirt. There I signed a letter on his behalf, which guarantees to pay $ 3 million for the debts of Russian citizen Roy Jones, as well as taking care of all of his tax obligations," Hryunov explained to Life Times."

    This is from 2015. Obviously he is broke and couldn't pay an old IRS bill for $3 million. He simply doesn't have the money = broke. He fights/fought for Hrunov because he had to. Not because he "loved the fighting game".

    I’m sure it’s more than 100, but he is the kind of person who doesn’t show his money, cars, etc

    It’s crazy that he went broke. He was a good trash talker but looked like an intelligent guy. With boxing, music, commentary, TV, etc. he probably made more than 50M dollar and he still wasted it. You have to be extra stupid to do that.
