    Fight shouldn't even be sanctioned anywhere and by anyone. This match is a huge risk to Holyfield's health, and furthermore can't be considered a valid title defense.

    I just responded to Povetkins next opp thread on the same lines as your concluding sentence, but put slightly differently but yeah "F*** the WBA and F*** Sauerland!"

    Getting him into the top 15 isn't a problem with the WBA... They even did it to Harrison when rumors about the Haye fight came up.

    First they said they wouldn't sanction it because they didn't rank Audley. 4 days later they came out with new rankings with mr "Yes I'm a Can" at #13... :blood

    I am not going to say ****, Evander fought for the WBA title twice in his last run of fights was robbed against Valuev and his fight with Ibragimov was close IMO, though leading in to both fights especially the Valuev fight I was worried about him but he did well he did better than the youngers guys have against these guys.
    Why should I worry here? Style wise if Holyfield has anything left this guy may be the right style for Evander..... so to be real with it I am supporting him

    Ancient Fossil Holyfield will be 49 years old when they fight, & he's been SHOT for 11 years, since 2000!

    What a disgrace. :barf
