Oh man. What a terrible decision. He wants to fight from 154-160? Top guys? Yeah right. I think he fights a few unranked guys, wins, realizes this was a bad idea, and retires again. Or.....Bring on Oscar vs Canelo!
I don't deny that. I just don't think it goes well. Very rarely do 47 year old guys make a comeback to boxing that goes how they planned it in their heads.
I do think Vitali could come back and still beat some mediocre HW contenders. Although that speaks to his quality as a fighter it also goes to show how bad HW is. I'd confidently pick Vitali with a full camp to beat someone like Kownacki.
Most likely... I mean, I don't mind exhibitions for like charity or things like that but actually making real comebacks? Can't be too good when nearing 50...
He's been looking fat as a chimichanga the past couple years. He needs a very good trainer plus a nutritionist to get back to any kind of decent shape.
