Wladimir Klitschko was tempted to call out Tyson Fury for one "last dance" at 46 years of age in a bid to break George Foreman's record as the oldest heavyweight champion.
Klitschko has not fought since being defeated in an epic battle against Anthony Joshua at Wembley Stadium five years ago, opting to hang up his gloves shortly afterwards. The former unified champion has taken up arms alongside his brother Vitali in their native Ukraine to fight against Russian invasion.
The 46-year-old has admitted his mind has been elsewhere since he signed up to help defend his homeland. He told Piers Morgan on TalkTV: “I was thinking I should tweet Tyson Fury - ‘Last dance?’ Since he wants to retire and we were supposed to have this rematch. I didn’t do it because my mind was now in a totally different world."
