I didn't take the time to read all that long article, but it sounds as if his political aspirations are now defunct, so I think he seeks boxing, once again, to get whatever level of fame he can back, and to feel like a *star* again. After being out of boxing, and no longer headlinging fights on HBO, and being reduced to being an oridinary Joe Schmoe again, that probably don't sit too well with his ego. I think most people get addicted to the fame and attention that being in the spotlight brings, and he probably misses that.......... as well as the money thing, obviously.
Nah. Too much to risk, inactivity, 35, beaten up by Jirov. He would have to start back at the bottom, doesn't seem like a smart thing.
