klitschko retires

great champion and credit to the sport, selfishly I would have wanted to see the rematch with aj but guy deserves to go out on his own terms with all his faculties in tact , what next for aj now?

Hughie has already agreed behind the scenes apparently, him and Peter had loads of meetings with him last week, and photo's etc, Haye posted one saying great to meet you both etc and look forward to fighting you later in the year champ, he then swiftly deleted it, tyson Fury went ape$hit too @ hughie and peter and ranted on IG about it

Very happy that Wlad has retired, the boring tóșser. Held the heavyweight division hostage for years using dirty tricks in and out of the ring, right up until the Fury's outsmarted him. Glad he's fcked off.

Right decision by klitschko, might not have been the most thrilling of champions inside or outside of the ring, but he held the belts for a decade and conducted himself well, good luck to him.

AJ vs Pulev next up and I suspect Parker vs Bellew as it sounds as though Bellew vs Haye isn't happening thankfully, it seems that all that bluster and fake humility from Haye post-fight was the act most suspected it to be and he won't take the short end of negotiations.

I'm not convinced he's earned it but I wouldn't mind Wilder vs Whyte.

On average he defended his titles twice a year over his reign.

Second longest reigning heavyweight champion.

guy will go down as one of the best ever, (as he should) however he will always have the fact that the heavyweight division being so weak for the majority of his reign hanging over him and being used to try and justify people not giving him the credit he deserves.

Fury is fighting Parker, if Parker wins he will either fight Wilder or AJ, if Fury wins its apparantly been agreed that his first defence will be against Haye. Hearn may try and get Bellew v Parker if parker wins.

Have a feeling that Hughie will beat Parker.
