My reactions? Disappointment. Rhodes was done a long time ago. I appreciate it's hard for a fighter to let go, but he's undoubtedly a risk to himself and needs reining in. No doubt he's convinced himself (and a coach and promoter) that he's got his hunger and drive back when all he really has is an itch that needs scratching and that could be done by talking up Fell Walking or Morris Dancing.

As much as I dislike Naz, he's stayed away from the ring and should be commended for it. Why can't anyone else follow suit?

I agree Dave

I like you wheelchair, you treat me with a much deserved respect that others would do well to copy, nay, emulate

well I treat my elders with respect

Again, a very admirable trait, have 10p to go buy yourself some sweets.*

I remember the days when that was actually a nice thing old people did for small children and was in no used as a seedy chat up line in order to try and touch their bums. Still, as six year olds, we didn't roam the streets twerking, wearing hot pants or t-shirts that said "Pop my cherry" on them so I'm not surprised we weren't ritually buggered as a matter of course

back to the subject though apparently Rhodes wants to take on Eubank JR so looks like hes signing with Warren

So a ritual Lamb to the slaughter then. He will quickly realise (much like Hatton did) that he doesn't have "it" anymore.

Dave, I couldn't agree more with your inital statement.

then Chris Eubank SR who seems to becoming more and more hands on as time passes with his son's boxing career will claim he is the second coming of Duran, RJJ and Leonard after he beats Rhodes

don't do it ryan

I think we all treat dave with exactly the amount of respect the c*nt deserves 

I hope Samuel L Jackson plays him in the movie.

haha

whos going to see the movie about Rhodes life story then

All of us if Samuel L plays him. Directed by Tarantino, the fight scenes would be blood baths.

These stories are always sad

He can obvously come back at domestic level and win a coupel before he fades enoughto get domianted form someone who'd struggle to get out of british level

He didn't embarrass himself against Rabchenko but he's had a hard career and has taken a lot already and the tank is pretty much empty after so much inactivity so he best stay retired but lets be honest he isn't the first and wont be the last to try a comeback

The spice boy's tear up with Jamie Moore is one of my favourite domestic fights of recentish years. Epic finish. Agree with the sentiment, not much point in him coming back to get beat up.

Money can't buy you love but it can put petrol in your hire purchase Mercedes.

His life story film will open up with him being born. Then cut to him fighting in his debut.... Then getting hammered on his last few fights then "Fin"

Shouldn't take too long

He must need money. Simple as that. He looked miserable in this interview, too. Pointless comeback. Sad to see.
