Former heavyweight champion Donovan “Razor” Ruddock has announced his plans to come out of retirement and try to battle the Klitschko brothers for heavyweight boxing supremacy.

Even in the prime of his career, Ruddock was never considered the greatest fighter around. In his twenties he lost to Mike Tyson twice and Lennox Lewis knocked him out. The thought of him being able to compete at an elite level now that he’s 48-years-old is laughable.
