I bet his brain isn't. He shouldn't be taking any more punches especially at 58, even at 48 he had clearly been boxing on too long, hell even at 38 I bet people were talking about him retiring after them Ruiz fights
He has excellent genetics However you cannot undo all the trauma that his head and brain have been subjected to since the 1980s as a PROFESSIONAL! He turned pro since before I was born! CTE does not just disappear when you stop boxing. Those neurons and axons in the brain do not repair themselves even young people let alone trauma inflicted boxers. But anyway, this is Triller's revenge on Holyfield after he threatened to sue them because they couldnt deliver one last payday they "promised" to Evander.
In his traning footage , he looked more stiff than Ali when he fought Holmes. Leonard was in good shape aswell physically when he fought Camacho... but his reflexes , movement & punching resistance didnt match his appearance. I mean , look at that promotion banner above, Evander could barely keeps his eyes open.
Holyfield's reaction times on the pads were that of a man approaching 60. He wont be able to get out of the way of anything with those reactions. He also punches slower than Valuev. I fear for his health. It is fortunate that he isnt in there with a professional boxer and its a bit of gimmick fight as he could get really hurt.
Is this gonna be an exhibition match? I know holyfield was the professional boxer but worried he will get some serious damage tonight.
he's pushing 60 and has stated that he wants another fight with mike tyson too. apparently the belfort fight is the first one that his kids have tried to talk him out of fighting.
Literally such a pointless thing to say And not even close to a reason as to why this fight is ok Yeah he clearly eats clean and doesnt indulge,probably runs still and goes groundwork etc But you can see from padwork his reflexes and timing are way off,the geezer is 58 and has had gruelling fights,he be a keep fitter obviously and look well like he does but he has no business in the ring ,
