It's only a tease if it's something the public is clamoring for. No one really cares if he comes back or not. His last two fights were losses to two of the top 3 guys in the division. The crown was passed...........twice.
A tease? Errrr.. Nobody wanted to see him when he was in his prime, no matter now.. It's not a tease, its more a threat.. Lol
Don’t know what to say really. Sure his fight with Joshua was entertaining as hell, but he has not looked good in a fight for a few years before even that one. I would like to see him fight again, but only a warm up fight, then I would hope he would realise from that he is long past his best, and just call it a day for good. Yes, I’ve heard him wanting to beat Foreman’s record, he has a good shot at it, but Foreman had a relatively easy champion to beat to achieve what he did. Top guys would be easy for him to beat years ago, but now his reflexes, timing and speed have gone, I don’t think there is a very good chance he can do it, just a chance.
How far off is he from the record? I think he would have a little but better than 50% chance to avoid Wilder's right hand for 12 rounds.
Think he would have to wait one more year. Foreman was 44,Wladimir is 44 in March, I’m not sure about the amount of months though.
I'd love to see him come back, few things would fill my heart with as much joy as seeing Anthony Joshua hauling ass running for his life from a crotchety old man for 12 rounds.
