You see the pic, man looks in game shape.

Right eye looks discolored, like he's been getting some sparring.

Wait…Is Sergio Martinez, the magnificent Maravilla, coming out of retirement?

The 160 ace battled injuries the last couple years of his career, and he wanted to soldier on after losing his WBC crown to Miguel Cotto in summer 2014. His body rebelled, though, and he got the memo and hung up the mitts summer 2015.

Or did he?

Is the 41 year old ex hitter healed up and looking to make another run?

No, says someone who'd know.

He likes to keep his bodily vessel in sleek shape, we are told, all the better to be a social animal as he continues to enjoy the next life chapter.
