Shortest comeback in history!
Moorer's comeback lasts 37 minutes...
On ESPN2 Friday Night Fights, former heavyweight champ Michael Moorer was the weekly in-studio guest analyst. He had announced his retirement in April, but at the top of Friday’s show (9:03 p.m. ET) Moorer told host Brian Kenny he was coming back. At 9:40 p.m., in a split screen with Moorer and ringside analyst Teddy Atlas, Moorer’s former trainer, Atlas asked Moorer to reconsider and stay retired. Moorer, citing his love for Atlas, reconsidered and said he’d remain retired.
9:03 p.m.
Moorer: I’m thinking of coming back to fight again. I miss it. My game plan would be to win the heavyweight title again.
9:40 p.m.
Atlas: Retire, Stay out of boxing. You’ve done so many great things.
Moorer: So Teddy, you want me to stay out of boxing? Just become a trainer?
Atlas: Yeah. I don’t want to see you fight anymore. You’ve done everything you can do at this level. It’s not there anymore for you.
Moorer: Teddy, that’s why I love you so much, because you’re the only person who was very honest with me from the very beginning. In the corner you were honest with me. I appreciate it and I love you for that.
Kenny: Are you going to listen to Teddy, Michael?
Moorer: I have to listen to him. He is the person who knows boxing. Teddy, I’m going to listen to you. I will stay away from the game, and I will become one of the premier trainers in the future.

Danke, Teddy. :thumb: Das derzeitige HW ist einfach zu schlecht als das Leute wie Moorer sich die Blöße geben müssen, gegen diese Typen zu verlieren, nur weil sie inzwischen zu alt sind.
