Wladimir Klitschko: "I'm going to take part in the 2016 Olympics"

[AntonTheMeh]

i think that would be amazing.

I don't aggree with it. But its 4 rounds of boxing, anything can happen, some of you forget everyone is dangerous in the first half of a fight. I wouldn't be surprised if someon gave Wlad a tough fight, he'd be two years older and who knows what guts these young olympians will show going up against a great in Wald. Sometimes all it takes is guts to win, it been proven time and again.

It would be unfair if only Ukraine could use a professional fighter in this scenario. If any country can do it then it is the opposite of unfair and more what the Olympics (best in the world compete) is supposed to be about anyway. Yeah, disgraceful that he'd like to go back and be an Olympian at 40. Of all the nerve? Nah. Unless it's a special Wlad rule or Ukraine rule I don't see why it would be anything wrong at all. If it is a special rule though I'd be interested to hear about it.

I don't understand how or why they are allowing pros in there anyway...Imagine Wlad v Audley Harrison for another gold medal tho ...

It's because other sports allow Pros.

Like Basketball, for example.

[SlySlickSmooth]

Don't allow Wlad to pick on amateurs.. some people here rate him a Top 10 HW. We can't seriously let him get a free medal. The transition from Am to Pros exist for a reason.

[Doctor_Tenma]

Now imagine if someone beat him, ain't that a sure way to stardom

[Rockin']

It's a ****ING disgrace!!! Pro's in the Olympics wtf. I guess that it's just all fun and games until one of these pro world champions seriously injures or kills a true amateur fighter. Boxing is a sport but so far from a 'game'. ****ing the greed for more money destroys everything sacred.......... Rockin'

[GeneralZod]

A world champion in the Olympics, that's just real fcking fair. Are Stevenson and Sergey hopping in too?

[Chalino Sanchez]

why not?? pro NBA basketball players are allowed to play aswell..

[PACnPBFsuck]

A P4P fighter, fighting amateurs, seems legit.
