    He’s almost 42 but in tremendous shape, can he become middleweight champion again?

    He is in good shape?
    Sound great because I think I see not soo long ago his photo and if I good remeber he look fat as hippo :eatingburger

    Maybe it was Photoshop.

    Let this great man and boxer rest now. Only one good bye fight with someone "light" and bye.
    He done enough. He should not fighting in that age destroying his achivmement.

    Will he fight Janibek?
    If not it's either GGG vs Charlo or GGG-Lara for a belt.

    Would say absolutely not because he’s shot too pieces and highly inactive but thankfully for him the middleweight division is the weakest in boxing.

    Foreman rebuilt himself and adapted to his age.
    He also fought 24 times in 4 years before getting a crack at Holyfield.

    I bet Janibek and Adames would welcome GGG´s challange, but I doubt GGG cares any longer. The fire has been gone for years now.
    He physically still capable competing at the world level, but he simply lacks the will.

    Probably still good enough to pick off a past-prime opponent but he should retire.

    And I love GGG, he's been immense for the sport and despite the critics is an all time great.

    If given a weak titleholder he probably has the ability, but practically speaking he's done now

    Maybe but he shouldn't. He has plenty of money and isn't really punchy so a good time to stop.

    I haven't seen him fight in ages.

    When Zerafa beats that old man Lara, maybe old man G can have a crack at him. And he can literally be, The Old G,

    The Old GGG

    Probably, because of his skill, chin and power.
    But if he's gonna fight cautiously now, like against Canelo, it could be hard. He used to take the first round off then press every round.

    If he really wanted to he could, but now seems a good time to retire.
