Was a fight I was looking forward to as I seen the commercial on my TV guide before it got cancelled. What kind of chance would Akinwande have had to dethrone Holyfield?
Two chances - slim and none. And Slim.......etc. Holyfield too busy for Akinwande and is a better all round fighter. Henry would have been durable and slippery enough to last the distance though. Especially if his priority is survival like it was against Lennox Lewis.
Yes, and easily as well, he’d outwork him for a decision and do the more quality work, set up punches better in a boring clinch fest.
