Basically he's in the class of pro athlete who doesn't know when to leave. It's clear that he has not accepted the reality of aging and heavy drug use, and unfortunately will probably appear in the next few Olympias, each time with a lower placing.
or maybe, just MAYBE, he is just doing what he loves to do...something very few people on planet can do...
Im not a Ronnie fan, but i respect the man...He doesnt have anything more to prove, probably no one will beat his record with Haney, he is (correct me if im wrong) the most winning Pro ever and still, with all the critiques and injuries, the 2nd best in the world, not to much behind Cutler the actual Mr O
He doesnt have any more pressure to maintain the O status, he has great contracts and he knows he is on the end of his carrer, just because of his age, nothing more...Why not do what you like to do because you love it, and not because you have to prove everyone you are still the best....Or maybe he just want to prove himself he still can do it, nothing wrong with that either...
just another look with a different aproach to the situation
