    I'll say the obvious: Andre Ward. Lot's of people would like to see him fight Beterbiev or Bivol, or even move up.

    Who else could come out of retirement and participate credibly in big fights?

    Wlad could probably still pull the trick, though I don't think he should.

    Mayweather of course, if he chose to stop fighting freak shows.

    Juan Manuel Marquez, as long as Pacquiao is still active, I think Marquez could drum up one last big one with Pac. Hell, JMM might put the beat down on a good number of 147 guys in the process too.

    Fury would destroy Wlad and so would AJ.

    Carl "The Cobra" Froch could still win a strap at SMW, keeps himself in good shape generally, might not want to bust up his new nose though

    I was thinking more about fights with the likes of Whyte or Wilder etc.

    Maybe Whyte because he`s slow like an older fighter, but Wilder would blow Wlad away.

    Ward.

    The others that people have been mentioning are all way past it.

    Ward is still only 36.

    Wlad knocked Wilder out cold in sparring. Real fight's not going to be any different, even at the tender age of 43.

    Wilder is a lot better now, Wlad cannot slip shots the way Fury did and Wilder has a slight reach advantage.
