Johnny interviewed by Kugan on ILF TV says he would come back to fight Huck and expose the division for what it is.
Crazy talk surely, what is the issue, why he is saying this?

Huck equaled Nelsons defense record maybe?

The question you need to ask is would Huck take it ?

Johnny is 47, been out of the ring about 9 years and just had hip surgery... and we all know those hips don't lie.

I imagine not as he'd be rightly criticised for beating up an injured old man who retired years ago.
Maybe Nelson could fight Bellew or Cleverley
Or just stop talking crap?
Or maybe we've all fallen for another one of Sheffield boxing famous pranks. The cheeky scamps, what will they come up with next?

I really do like Nelson but this isn't one of those scenarios where a living legend returns and we all wonder if he's still got it. It's only Johnny Nelson. And I say that as a fan of his. It would be sad to see him take a beating. In his prime his reflexes were superb, but at 47 its just a memory. Don't do it Johnny !

Sky/Matchroom and the Sauerlands are cozying up so we can get to see the Sauerland shows on Sky with Groves/Price, and build up to a Huck or Hernandez v Cleverly/Bellew fight.
Notice how the Huck fight wasn't on allegedly

well he said it off camera to someone today, with nobody else around to talk crap to. So who knows, maybe he is serious.

It's like Leonard coming back to face Hagler all over again. Johnny knows what the people want.

Huck is technically poor but he's a fighter through and through who will eat punches and will gamble to land them back.
If it ever happened Johnny will dance around for a round or two, end up take a good one and bad back it.
'Adam, Adam! I had him right where I wanted him but old father time let him off the huck..'

Nelson was a bit of a bottle job when he was in his prime-had a look at an opponont in the first round if he thought he could beat him he was fine, but if not he would shut up shop and grab and hold his way through.

Sorry, but what a load of bllx. Sugar Ray Nelson lol.
Nelson has been inactive far too long he'd be stupid to take on Huck he'd have little to no chance.
