    Tyson doesn't sound right either but he put on a pretty good exhibition, holding back on battering RJJ.

    Anyway, like a previous poster said, I'd put money on Evander, although the promoter might have to lift Vitor's unconscious body into the later rounds and make it a draw.

    I was really hoping to see if maybe belfort could land a bomb and comatose oscar. Holy vs belfort really isnt all that appealing. Unless, the winner fights tyson.

    Death match? And the streaming public can vote LIVE thumbs up or down when someone goes down for the count.

    I'm actually surprised no one has done this before. A Jake Paul fight to the death...and he loses.

    Belfort was an excellent mma guy but was horribly shot at the end like most of them btw

    This fight should have never been given a go ahead.

    A 60 year old vs a 44 year old juiced to the gills with insane power.

    With the latest announcement, this is going to be the circus to end all circuses. This will be the most ridiculous boxing card of all times.

    They should have waited for Oscar and rescheduled. Holyfield was always one of my favorite fighters growing up, but this is kinda sad.

    Vitor looks better on the pads than Holyfield does.

    Holyfield's legs and bounce has disappered too.

    Holyfield will get stopped here. He's slow and his reflexes are diminished. Belfort at least has some explosiveness and reflexes left, his power also is still there as he looks jacked as ****.

    I like Evander but this is a terrible idea and it will go wrong.

    Nobody beats father time.

    Alright, so not only is this in fact YES a sanctioned pro bout and not an exhibition (8 rounds @ heavyweight, three minutes' length each, normal rules, no headgear, and will count on their records, being Holyfield's first match in one decade and four months, and Belfort's first in this sport in 15 years) - and not only is the 42nd POTUS, insanely, for some reason, commentating - but the card will also feature Belfort's fellow UFC championship alumni Jacob Christopher "Tito" Ortíz and Anderson "A Aranha (The Spider)" da Silva, in an eight-rounder at cruiser.

    Belfort big favourite with the bookies.

    Also even money to knock Holyfield out, which he will do.
