    To be fair to Evander, I think the interviewer was not the most appropriate person to be in such a position. I bet he doesn't know any more about Global Warming than Holyfield does.

    I remember Tyson was interviewed just before the fight with Botha I think. The interviewer tried to take the **** or sort of tell Mike what to do & Tyson went berserk, swearing at the guy, etc. It was via video-link, Tyson was wearing a harley davidson hat if I'm not mistaken!

    The interviewer said something along the lines of we won't tolerate swearing. Tyson replied by saying "well turn off your ****ing station".

    Say what you mean, Mike! Lol

    I don't think Holyfield has much brain damage or is punch drunk, I think he's just not a very good speaker, never has been.

    I also don't think he really knows anything about global warming :good

    this is the fighter all fans love
    dementia and parkinson future
    you could fight so smart like floyd or klitchs but you gotta impress the fans with heart instead of boxing skills
    shane is next trust i feel bad for these guys man they have it all wrong man. To impress me show how invencible you are by not getting hit after landing %55 of your punches not how many hits you take giving a knockout. i hate short fights anyway i love chess

    Exactly. That's the story of this interview, not anything being supposedly "wrong" with Holyfield.

    Jeez, he's being asked questions about GLOBAL WARMING for crissakes - OF COURSE he's gonna stammer and have trouble. Holyfield is a sweet scientist, not a friggin' climate scientist!!!!:patsch

    Wow, that interviewer was a bit disrespectful. A complete clown with no idea about boxing either!

    I like Holyfield, but thought it was sad that he'd agreed to do the interview with little knowledge of the subject or without knowing exactly what the project involved, not to mention the fact that he sounded really slow and effected.

    It almost sounds to me as though there is a group/company of some sort that is paying Evander for the use of his property rather than Evander paying to have it all set up. If this is the case, it works wonders for Evander in that he gets a little cash flow coming in and gets in good with the whole "going green" crowd. Good for him.:good

    interviewers opinionated and what a brain on him? boxing done?
    global warming green technology a waste of money?
    good for evander. nice to see he's got a concience.
    i know some folks say boxing is on the way out, but there are some superfights gonna break box office records in the near future, gonna paint a different picture.

    Ultimate Fighting, lmao, wtf is that anyway?

    Despite what you guys say, I'm cheering for Evander. He should've been HW champion after the Valuev fight (and this is coming from a Russian). Hopefully he gets another chance and pulls it off. I'd be happy to see one of boxing's nobelest warriors retire champ.

    What a disrespectful little cumbucket that interviewer was. Evander was a true warrior and i definitely hope he will hang them up. No need to carry on. Only lace em up if your gonna take on that interviewer though.

    Close the thread. Evander sounded like this since the beginning. The guy interviewing him is an armchair quarterback.
