    Im sure this has been posted already, but all well. He was like 280 lbs. for the Zumbrun fight wasn't he? Looks like he might actually be putting some effort into this comeback. If he stays active fighting journeyman, and continues on with his weight loss endeavor, he might actually get down to 250 lbs. eventually.

    Stupid comeback. The guy is sick, should not be allowed to fight for the good of his own.

    I hate to see Bowe continue fighting. He is one of the very sad figures of recent years. Is there any possible happy (or even just not horrible) ending to his story?
     
  4. :tired271 WTF to many Big Macs, Rock Newman did say once that Bowe is a fast food junkie, this guy is gonna have heart disease by the time he's 50:-(

    Yeah, I remember there being a lot of footage of him going into McDonalds and ordering big macs. The counterboys usually recognized him.

    I don't remember exactly, but I did a google search/google news search and found a ton of articles on it, but my internet is screwing up so I could open them or post links. Try a google search, it'll be on there.

    He had a few years there where he was young enough to make a real comeback, but now is too late. Although the heavyweights are a lean bunch nowadays.

    Holyfield has MAJOR money issues. He owes something like $10M in back taxes.
