at the age of 42 hide is in trainning to make a comeback in April How far do you think hide will go? He was ranked number one by the wbc at cruiser weight last time he was active Would love to see him smash tony bellew and the build up would be interesting too Thoughts please gentlemen
He was shot whenhe retired that won't have changed now, may do OK agaimst some euro bums second he fights anyone of any class he will get hurt.
To past it. Shame as had he been around now and with cruisers now being 200lb in his prime he beats all current champs
with his power he's always a danger. with his chin he better hope he has some speed and movement left though, wich I don't expect.
I wouldn't agree that he was shot last time around. Wasn't he in line for a title shot but the cut in Prizefighter wrecked that? It doesn't appear that the comeback is going brilliantly! http://www.edp24.co.uk/news/former_...e_training_outside_bawburgh_mansion_1_3989860
He's been in jail and probably has no money. I was a great HH-fan in the 90's. He already tried to make a comeback a couple of years ago, but all he does now is fight for money.
As a former two time Heavyweight title holder, who fought Rid**** Bowe and Vitali Klitschko at or near their peak. That he fought in an exhibition 'prizefighter' suggests he had seen much better days; that was five years ago. Hide looked 'merely' shot on the comeback before, the one before he suffered the first bad cut, when he was flattened by Chingangu, while being billed as the potential first 'name' opponent for Audley, that was nearly 14 years ago!
Herbies a nice chap surrounded by bad influences.. This will end badly.. Such a shame because I always rated the way he kept climbing off the canvas when he lost to Bowe.. That loss couldve made him..
That was one of the weirdest HW titlefights I've ever seen. Hide had Bowe in serious trouble everytime he landed a punch but didn't seem to realize that, and he himself went down a couple of times just due to Bowe's pressure. Hide lost that fight due to pure fear imo.
He's a 42 year old man, I think he ought to know by now what's right, and wrong and the kind of people NOT to hang around with. Sounds like a bad seed to me.
