        I'll go with Bernard. 2 weight classes and 15 pounds in one fight at the age of 41 after losing his last two fights he totally outclassed Tarver and made Tarver THE LAUGHING STOCK OF BOXING.

            ODLH surely made the most eye opening comeback.

            But id actually go with MOSLEY. Maskaev would be up there, but u get the feeling it wont last.

            However Mosley has me convinced hes almost as good as he used to be. I think he has the most promising futures out of all the oldies... except maybe klitschko if he can Unify

              as of right now i would say it ought to go to Hernandez for losing 6 rounds out of 8 and down on all cards to get the KO win over Litzau.............


              other than that, bah hum bug.......

                I don't see how in the hell anyone else will pick anyone over Hopkins, if this is not a comeback of the year then I don't know what is.

                  i think he means more like a comeback to the top level.

                  Like MASKAEV was in oblivion for a long time until this year.

                  Hopkins was thought of as done after his two losses to taylor. he made a gorgeous comeback to the top this year.

                  And then he also means a comeback, like a comeback after a long rest.

                  DLH took 2 years off

                    virgil hill won the wba cruiserweight title against at 42 against an undefeated valeri brudov....thats impressive, considering hill had just lost a very close fight to mormeck and was considering retirement....
