    Instead of ODLH. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    As to whether this is still light heavyweight? Probably not, I would imagine that it now becomes "open-weight" (so, HW).

    As to whether it will count on their pro records like Belfort vs. De La Hoya was set to? I dunno. My inclination would be that no, this is probably an exhibition now.

    Saw an article, 8 2-minute rounds.

    The headline:
    "De La Hoya hospitalized with COVID-19; Holyfield to fight Belfort"
    ...is actually very very insane.

    Holyfield is 58. His chin and stamina will both be gone.

    Man, I have this feeling Belfort will do the job and finally convince Holy that age is a thing.

    I'd mortage my house and bet it all on Holyfield if I knew he even had a decent training camp, but I"m afraid Holyfield is probably going to step into this fight strictly for the money and unproperly trained. If thats the case, hopefully its just an exhibition sparring session.

    Without his TRT & horseroids Belfort is a flat balloon with a glass jaw.

    Frankly I'm a little disappointed it's an exhibition, it's gotten this crazy why not go all the way?
