    Seems to be sparring hard, here. Maybe we are going to get the rematch? Or maybe Briggs?

    For love of all that is holy and good, I hope they stay retired. Wlad and Fury both.

    I'm on board if Vlad pulls a big George, gets fat to fortify his chin, and comes back to punch the fright into the young whippersnappers in slow motion.

    Yeah… HUGE Wladimir fan but… might wanna crap or GET OFF THE POT at this stage. Boxing isn’t really a sport you should put off coming back to like golf.

    Are we going to be doing this still in 2031?? “Wlad’s talking about coming back and fighting Richard Torrez for the new WBO Super Belt!! He’s gonna go for the record of the oldest senior of any professional sport to win a world championship of ANY kind!”

    Klitschko gets absolutely flattened by anyone in the top 10. No shame in that, he's pushing 50, but somebody in his team needs to tell him that.

    I would like Wlad to come back, but only if there is a clear (and easy) path to a unified belt. I'd doubt he would fight Usyk, but once Usyk is gone he kinda has a good chance if he can get the right fights.

    :lol::lol::lol: I still say if Manny didn’t die, Wladimir would’ve broken Joe Louis’ record.

    You're probably right. I was never a big fan of Banks.

    At his age he might get flattened by quite a few guys outside the top 10, too.:sisi1

    Wlad looked absolutely slow and off vs Glass Joshua and that was what? 8 years ago? He’s done.

    father time. hell of an opponent. however, I'm on the fence. would love to see Wlad come back and do well. would hate to see him come back and do badly..suffer damage etc. don't know what kind of interest there would be in a Wlad/Fury rematch...maybe massive.
    if he is going to do it...better do it now and fast.

    Maybe he’s just keeping himself fit and active?

    Too freaking slow now, I guarantee it.

    I was watching 20ish year old Golovkin vs the Murata version and it was like watching two different fighters. Old man GGG looked hell of pumped but also like he was moving through jam.

    Wlad has been retired long enough for me to forget how to correctly write his last name.
