    Maybe but 8 rounds should be more than enough for EH to clip him.

    Superficially he might look good but he still has the bones, tendons and ligaments of an old man.

    Holyfield is probably past his best now but Belfort isn't boxer. He's an MMA fighter who whilst admittedly did/does have good hands has only had one professional boxing match and that was 15 years ago against a nobody who was also making the debut and has never fought since after getting stopped by Belfor. Holyfield is a the former undisputed CW and HW champion of the world and best believe he can still punch and put the combos together. Don't forget, Holyfield is a lot younger than Luis Ortiz who still to this day is by far The Tuscaloser's best win.

    You're grossly overestimating Holyfield and underestimating Vitor.

    Evander looks every bit his age. Slow as molasses.

    I think Holyfield has adapted with age and will teach Belfort a painful lesson with a masterful display of slow-fast speed

    :lol: I honestly won't be in the least bit surprised if Holyfield KO's him though

    I hear you, but Holyfield's prime was decades ago now.

    I think I could, but I think it will be just an exhibition, with no intentions of anything too dramatic. Just a show for nostalgias sake

    Let’s just hope and pray that Evander catches Vitor early and ends it quickly. The longer it goes the worse it’s gonna get for him.

    I mean let’s be honest here, he’s doing this because he needs the money and it’s very sad for a person of his stature and someone who’s such a beloved figure in our sport.

    You reckon this bum would beat 56 y/o Lewis?
