I'm sure many of you have heard in the past that Wlad has wanted to take part in the Rio Olympics in 2016 and regain the gold medal that he won at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, a 20 year difference. It seems to have been confirmed that pro boxers will be allowed to take part in the Olympic boxing, and Wladimir has been making noise about wanting that second gold medal for a while now...seems to be pretty serious about it now too...
So, if he does go on and compete in the games, I assume he will retire from the pros? Is this a good idea? Will it/how will it impact his legacy? Who should he fight if he only has 2 years left in the pros?

"I'm definitely going to take part in the Olympics, if at that time I still have the health and motivation. There are still two and a half years before the Olympics - on the one hand, this may seem like an eternity, and on the other, it will pass very quickly "
