    Before anyone starts criticizing the idea think about the match from an entertainment aspect. Two former great champions meeting toe-to-toe. We wouldget our money's worth. Isn't that what its all about?.....loser retires

    Jirov is not as done as Holyfield is....Jirov can still make things happen at cruiserweight.

    The fight would have to be at heavyweight, about 215 lbs.

    I like this fight. These 2, albeit shots, are still entertaining to watch.

    I prefer these fights dont happen nor that they get airplay.
    I prefer fight between guys in or at least close to their prime.

    Just my preference, I know a lot of people would watch this.

    I say just give Holyfield a shot at the title already. He can't be any worse than the rest of the bunch. Maybe he'll mess around and actually win. I still think he's shot, but I do have to think that maybe none of the title holders want to give him a shot based on the whim that he might come through with the win. And any heavyweight champ would probably be pretty embarassed to lose to Evander at this point. He's in a tough spot but money talks and if he was in a title fight, he'd probably make more money for any fighter out there than anyone else will.

    Which title is Holyfield now going to get a shot at? All four are now announced and the soonest would be against the W. Klitchko-Brewster winner in early winter. He has to keep busy. A fight versus Jirov makes a lot of sense.
