    Default Poll: Can a golden oldie comeback and win a World Heavyweight Title?

    At the moment, Heavyweight boxing is seeing a bit of a nostalgia trip were alot of fighters who retired, and are waaaay past their prime, still believe that they can come back and offer something to a division lacking talent. Many of these still fancy their chances of once again becoming a Heavyweight Champion.

    Such former stars as Evander Holyfield, Riddick Bowe, Bruce Seldon, Oliver McCall and even Britain's 49 year old former Heavyweight Tim Witherspoon are trying to make a comeback.

    Can any of them topple the odds and become Heavyweight Champion once again?

    Basically, I've picked yes, cause I think that with the state of the division at the moment Holyfield or McCall might have a shot, if they pick the right champion to go after. They should steer clear of Klitschko and Peter, but Maskaev would be a good one if they could get him in the ring i think.

    My bad guys, I must have misread something. Some British guy tried to get a boxing liscense in Newcastle (i think it was). I'm getting the two mixed up.

    I voted yes. I believe Holyfield can topple Ibragimov. I really don't think much of Ibrag.
