Lennox to come out of retirement and fight Vitali for $100 million

[erics44]

If Lewis was serious about fighting again do you seriously think he'd turndown $50 million? Saying he wants $100m is the same as saying no amount of money will make him comeback.

kill joy

[Tam Seddon]

Would he take it if he was offered $75 mill?

[Gandalf]

It's silly talk. He has no intention of coming back and the number quoted says as much. It would be easier to get a US government contract as a hitman than get a comeback fight for a 100 million dollars.

Lennox was asked what it would take to bring him out of retirement to fight Wlad ,
he then said $100 million , he was taking the piss and the media bought it.

[Bo-Bo24]

He got offered 50 million, now he's saying 100 million. Hes pricing himself out of it on purpose

[Fenster]

So this is nonsense? Shame. It looked promising

[Spicoli]

Holyfield just tweeted he would take the fight for a quarter of that, or a months child support, and a #5 w/ large coke at Wendys.

Things are looking up!

As Lennox fan, its concerning that his drive to come back is money rather than self belief and determination. Its a money driven freakshow fight, and another reminder of how shit heavyweight boxing is at the moment. I dont think Lenox has much of a chance of winning at all, and it would be a terrible shame to see him tar his legacy. But if the papers get signed, at any price, then i'll god damn be watching! let the freak show commence COME ON LEWIS KNOCK HIM OUT!!!!

[Master]

It will never happen as both fighters could not attract £100m budget and Lennox is way past it.

[Nameless]

Very simple: Lewis is making sure to be in a win-win situation no matter the result; he,s almost making sure that people won't bug him off to come in the ring again and if they are willing to lay down 100 millions, well they are the morons and no matter what the issue of the fight, for 100 millions, he's clearly the winner.
One thing for sure; except PERHAPS for an eccentric billionaire, no serious promoter will ever shell that amount of money because there would then be no profits to be made at all (or way too little for the risks involved), especially because it doesn't include Vitali/Wlad's purse plus the other fees involved in the fight.
