    "I would consider his age a factor if this were 1995 through 1998. But with the medicine and technology, it's different. I really think he could fight until he was 75 if he wanted to, and I'm serious. He lives really clean. His 37 is not the average 37," J.Banks said.

    Any thoughts on this statement? Will GGG fight past 40??

    But he will slow down at that age. Just take a look at Luis Ortiz, who's in that ballpark.

    His DAZN contract ends after 6 fights, and then he goes on as a promotor. This weekend is his 2nd fight... 2 more in 2020, 2 more in 2021 and as it stands now, then he's done
    He will be 39 at that point.

    I believe Sergio Martinez retired at just about the same age so it makes sense!! I remember Sergio's body started to fall apart though & tried stem cell research.

    Poor Sergio, that was a drastic decline. Man was he fun to watch until those knees gave out.

    For an ATG, he really should hit 40 with a better second best win than D-Chenko.
