Vitali Klitschko comeback? At age 46 can he do it?

No, he can't.

 

Better for him that he forgets the idea.

 

Lets hope he sees sense and stays retired.

 

Nah, truth is even before he retired he was showing signs of decline, having to go the full 12 rounds with Chisora and even having to back off in the last couple of rounds. The same Chisora that was later to be utterly flattered by David Haye in 2012. Vitali still looks as tough as ever but I can’t see anything other than a humiliation for him if he did come back.

 

He tore his shoulder in that fight.

 

He was a creaky old dinosaur the last time he boxed. A comeback would be farcical. That said, I have read that this story was poorly translated and that he wasn't actually considering a comeback.

 

Father Time is undefeated

 

He can **** up Wilder any time he pleases.
Whether he could have a realistic chance of upsetting Joshua would, I think, depend heavily on how well he's kept in shape. If he has to spend two years getting into top condition, that's two more years of aging and that's just too much. If he were in fighting condition in six months I'd say he has a ~10-15% chance of upsetting Joshua.

 

I have a little brother. I know exactly how he feels.
When I was fourteen I beat the ever loving **** out of a kid who was two years older and twenty pounds heavier because he thought it would be funny to knock my brother off his skate board. When I saw my brother bleeding the **** was on and I messed that kid up so badly his parents threatened to sue.

I trust most older brothers reading this know *exactly* what I mean.

 

I agree. this is not a guy pushing anyone. Vlad. would have knocked out Joshua had and Joshua not done it to him. and they earn millions. This is professional stuff. I cannot see Vitali's point. He just sees Joshua as beatable and wants to earn money and get a big win.

 

You're overextending the analogy to a point it was never intended to go. I'm not insinuating that Joshua is guilty of anything whatsoever. Indeed he seems like a fine fellow.

I just know what it feels like to be a protective older brother, and it's far from an ignoble thing.

 

Hypothetically, if Vitali was to come out of retirement and avenge Wlad's loss, surely that would place him above Wlad in an all time standing. (Ironically, it would shatter and do more damage to Wlad's reputation than the Joshua loss did!)

 

If Mendoza is posting it you can bet your life its poorly translated!lol
