    Marcellus Browne was Mercer's original opponent, but Browne got injured and Mike Sedillo was the fill-in opponent.

    I remember being hyped up for this fight as i seen the comercial on the tv guide,i see holyfield then this guy towering above from behind. My dad was going to order it and then we seen the "THIS FIGHT HAS BEEN CANCELLED" bulletin on the bottom.:twisted:.... i was thinking man that probably would have been a good fight. But yeah idk who mercer was going to fight, but i believe christy martin was supposed to be on the card.
