    The sad thing about all this, its more interesting than any other Heavyweight fight thats being made this year. Just like most of you, I will be watching this fight.

    I disagree. Klitschko/Ibragimov has far more meaning.

    More people will be watching Holyfield/Tyson than Iggy/Wlad, I think we both know that, the average guy dont even know who Wlad is, the average guy in the bar does know who Tyson and Holyfield is.:yep

    Callling him out?

    Where do you get that?

    Holy is merely responding to the public statement Tyson made.

    Ok, gotcha! I think you've made your negative points often enough to where we ALL know them by heart, by now.

    -The upcoming unification fight is something you are not at ALL interested in, and you may watch, but won't enjoy it, if you do.

    -The current division SUCKS.

    -NONE of the current heavies have any charisma, much less, any skill.

    -The fighters of the 90s are ten times the fighters of today, in EVERY way.

    -The Tyson Holy fight is a throwback to when fighters were real, and had skills, and the fans took interest; unlike today.

    Does that about get it, or are there some amendments you'd like to add to your list? :-(

    You pretty much nailed it Heavyrighthand, I will be watching the upcoming, so called unification match come Feb 22, and it might be decent fight if Iggy doesnt run all night. I think my opinions on the divsion are the same as most, and Im far from the only one that thinks the divsion is ****.:yep

    You made the comment that the Iggy/Wlad fight has more meaning, yes I think it has more meaning in the sense of being better for the divsion to be that much closer to unification. As far as popularity and interest in the Heavyweight divsion, the Holyfield/Tyson has more meaning.

    Tyson would kick holy's ass as long as he desn't get headbutted constantly and cheated.

    Although he's the best HW of the 90s,Holyfield is also one of the dirtiest fighters out there but he's always gotten a pass just for being holyfield. And what kind of holy man has over 30 ****in kids with 20 different wives? That's some bull**** and it's rubbish.

    Exactly. Frankly, this is pretty much the only fight that makes any sense for either guy. People forget boxing is about MONEY, and this fight will still generate big money for both.

    Having these guys fight each other is a HELL of a lot better than seeing either of 'em, particularly Tyson, get embarassed by a contender. Heck, Holyfield's gonna embarass him, and he's shot.:yep

    I hear Frazier is interested in another go at Ali.
