    Seen some news articles from today one from the ring magazine. Saying that Klitschko is all but committed to a return to the ring. Do you think there maybe something in it this tim

    Klit has no chance of doing anything remotely relevant in a comeback. Hope he KOs Wilder though

    Even though that wouldn't be for the record, it would be a huge fight

    If he still has most of his power… he’s got a shot at beating anyone not named Usyk.

    Better get a couple of comeback fights first.

    No way is Wlad able to beat any of the top heavyweights even if Uysk isn't in the picture. He would get flattened.

    He was well past his best 10 years ago, he might be able to beat some fringe contenders but at this stage, he's getting beat up by any top 10 active fighter.

    Wlad was a legend in his prime and I would love to see him come back and win some big fights but that is very unlikely.

    Klitschko vs. Ortiz would be a great comeback fight for Klitschko, Klitschko would outbox him and even stop him, he should not be pushed into the fire with younger fighters...

    He ain’t coming back. I think he just puts these rumours out every 6 months because he wants to stay relevant.
