    Holyfield - the next oldest champion in history ... I'm in! .... because the first
    defense for Holy would be Golota and that is what I'm rooting for :)

    Disgusting. It hurts boxing every time Evander gets into the ring. I won't watch.

    That would be a great fight Holyfield vs Golota, would have been much better back in the day.

    I love holyfield, he was fighting when I was born, I think he is one of the very best ever. I want him to retire though. I don't like the sound of this at all...

    one plus we can take from this shambles is that holyfield will retire after the fight which will be a great moment for us all who worry about him...povotkin isnt going to hurt him like wlad or vitali would which can let him have his last hurrah and bow out...

    Povetkin is about as gutless a fighter as there is in the sport.This man was a mandatory for a world title for two and a half years and pulled out on both occasions.There is absolutely no doubt that this "man" is scared to death of Wladimir Klitschko.

    This is all Atlas' doing. :twisted:

    He just wants to be the guy who coached the guy who beat up the guy who twice beat up Tyson.

    To be honest, Holy has his chance. It's sad to say that because it shows how BAD the division is.
