    As much as I'd like to see Wlad come back and miraculously unify, he's way too old and his style of fighting demands certain physical attributes which are much diminished. He's not a Foreman-type invulnerable tank type heavyweight who can eat 2 for 1 and still come out on top.

    For what? He already tried 2 times to rematch Fury, yet Fury escaped both time with bullcrap.
    This fight would make sense if Klitschko was pre Steward, and with Steward 2005 - 2012 or maybe 2013 and 2014.
    Tho Klitschko regress started after Steward passes away or maybe in the 2013.
    Fury fought Klitschko who was 39 and a half years old. Now Klitschko is 43, i dont see him any better. Maybe the tactics was wrong in the first fight as well, but hes footwork, speed, cardio, workrate, killer instincts, jabs was pretty much gone. His power also was not the same anymore.
    Now he will be worst, maybe tacticly will be better if he have better trainer this time arround.
    Fury was 27 years old in that fight as well. Now he is 31. But i expect his skills to start droping in a few years from now. I dont see Fury at 33 to be prime.
    He may continue winning by fightings bum after bum, but he will start sleeping very soon.

    doubt he will be tempted to come back. It has been in his mind in the past and he has not done it. Could he come back and do well? Yeah. Could he come back and not do so well? Yeah. Could he stay out and enjoy his life? Yeah. That is the better option. Doesn't need the money. Has his health and brain works fine. You would have to want it a hell of a lot to do it. Enjoy life.

    I just wondered with fury not seeming to have the devastating power of AJ.

    Wlad's done. He seems content with the great career he had and probably knows he doesn't have much left in the tank.

    he's waiting for the right time to come back, he's relaxing now and should be able to perform at top level for 5 rounds no doubt even in a couple of years.

    If something were to make him come back, this would be it. He must despise Fury and Fury has never looked more beatable.

    That said: No, you idiot. Wlad is ****ing 43 years old and hasn't fought in 2.5 years.

    This. Wlad needs to stay retired. He was already old and many years past his prime when Fury beat him almost 5 years ago. At 43 Wlad just needs to enjoy his retirement.
