    Yeah, I have trouble seeing any heavyweights coming in young. If anything, there's more and more guys turning pro nearer 30 than 20.

    I could easily see in a few years someone picking up a vacated belt at 46, if anything it would make what would be a pretty meaningless fight somewhat more marketable, thus making the 46 year old a little more likely to get what would probably be a somewhat unmerited shot.

    Easier both records can be passed than Holy's one ...4 times champion (almost 5...he was robbed with Valuev)

    He's full of bologna. Some here like me, some don't. Just the same as it likely is with him

    Can’t see it myself, like someone else said talent is to protected these days and an absolute animal like Tyson would probably end up in ufc. I’d rather see this one broken though can you imagine having to see any of the current heavyweights compete in their late 40’s sack that

    say 3 years down the line, fury and aj have fought each other and both retire.

    the belts are up for grabs and who else would be on the scene.

    hrgovic, DDD, Joseph parker, yoka, ajaba.

    Not out the question at all for wlad to return and break the record.
