    He's a top 10 ATG heavyweight and had a great career, but as a fan the AJ fight is still winnable imo.

    Hopefully he does, the AJ fight improved his h2h standing & his level of respect amongst a lot of fans I think. If he goes out there and gets blasted out early in a poor performance all of that is un done.

    Wlad said himself before the first fight 'Any later and I will be too old and Anthony too good' which already proved the case, so maybe he should heed his own warning here, as the first fight has most likely helped AJ tremendously in his development as a fighter.

    Nope.

    Ring recently complied a top 20 ATG list and he came in at #16.

    I think he should retire. Even though he lost against AJ, he would be retiring with massive respect from almost every fan of boxing.

    He should have a farewell fight in Germany or Ukraine before he retires.

    If your going to go out on a loss you can't go out in better style than he did, He truly passed the torch onto the next lion in an all time classic showdown. Hes nothing left to prove already an ATG,

    As opposed to what?....YOU?

    A sad lonely alky who stalks Wlad Klitschko threads and if there aren't any going you'll find a way to talk about him in some way shape or form.....I know I'd rather be me than you.

    I want to see a farewell fight in Germany... Against someone like Browne or Hammer. But a fight with Parker or Wilder would be awesome. I think he could still beat both of those guys and retire with a strap at 41... That would be awesome.
