This bout is a disgrace. I was fine with these guys in mild exhibitions against each other, but putting them in genuine harm's way is a blight on the sport.
I think this is what will happen. Triller wants to add a (very thin) layer of authenticity to the event. I think these guys still circle and jab until the bell
Holyfield looked great but he’s still 58 yrs old with way too many wars under his belt. I’m fine with a “not too hard exhibition fight” but a real pro fight is just plain irresponsible by the promotion, I hope nobody buy this card and this promotion goes bankrupt.
He has had heart issues for years. Yeah, he looks great..but you can't judge a book...or a fighter....by its' cover.
If Belfort is anywhere near a good version of himself he's going to maul Holyfield. He may not be a pro boxer but in his prime he hit very fast and hard, in combination. He'd be one of the MMA guys that I'd pick to become a pro boxer.
Here's how Belfort tends to strike: straight and fast, often trying to catch guys coming in This content is protected
