    I'm certainly not. PPV for a faded 48yr old has been? I can't imagine it being a big seller...we're not talking the Holyfield that beat Tyson here..this is old shot to pieces Holyfield who should've retired 10yrs ago. His choice of opponent suggests to me he's only doing it for the money and doesnt really believe he can win a world title. He only hopes his name will get him another shot. How long ago was it when Toney TKO'd him?? He should have quit then.

    They aren't even showing the Boswell fight. It's a junky card IMO...a lotta names facing no-names. If it were less expensive I'd buy it. I bought Adamek/Grant and Tua/Barrett but this...I think I'll pass.

    I don't even pay extra for the premier championship bouts between prime stars, let alone two guys who should have retired 10+ years ago.

    The more I review Williams record, the more pissed I am getting that they are trying to make this a PPV. Tank Williams has a DRAW with Gilbert Martinez for christ sake. He has not won one meaningful fight in his entire career. I don't see how a win over this guy is going to help Holyfield get anywhere near any belts.

    I know America is obsessed with USA heavyweights, as am I but c'mon this is just garbage. I wanna see Holyfield fight but not guys like this.
