    Iam worried Evander may get killed or seriously hurt, maybe after he quits the long term effects will make him a plant.

    Now, where would we rank Joe Louis if he'd lost to Jack Roper and got a gift decision. :think

    A lot of people here seem to think that Holyfield deserved the decision.

    That was never close of happening, unlike say Holyfiled, Louis made sure Roper did not see round 2.

    My point is that some people need to reconsider their ranking of Valuev after this fight, just as people would reconsider their ranking of Louis if he'd put in a similar peformance against Roper.

    Louis did have lack luster showings. Not as bad as nearly (OR in most eyes loseing) to a 43 year old shot former champ.

    Schemling 1, Godney 1, Walcott 1, Conn 1, and perhaps Walcott II.
