    i saw holy v sultan ibragimov today man holy looked sharp !!!
    i caught that fight on tv today i couldn't believe my eyes holy looked better than that young fighter in late rounds.. i watched it from 6th round i dont know how they started but holy got the late rounds in my eyes, but what you expect the fight was in moscow so obviously he's gonna lose the decision.
    when was that fight ? it wasnt live.. it said wlad v ibrahimov this sunday i cant wait to see it. it's gonna be a late TKO for wlad probably.

    that's what i used to say.. but not after seeing him smack it today the man didnt even look tired after 12 rounds, he's an old papa for boxing but damnn he must have the best genes for boxing and above all DETERMINATION.

    why ??
    im sure there's plenty of bums holy can outbox with 1 hand right now and get an easy UD. but yeah his days to compete in top10 are gone.. i was praying not to see holy on his ass today, that would really make me feel bad. AN OLD WARRIOR !!!!!! he's definitely in my top10 heavys all time from now:yep

    He's truly in remarkable shape, but there's really no point in hanging around.

    I thought he should have retired after the Ruiz snoozers.

    The fight could have been in Evander "Evan Fields" Holyfield's living room and he would have lost the decision.

    He should have retired after pushing Lewis close in their rematch. After that he'd nothing left to prove and had faced the 3 best heavyweights of his era - Bowe, Tyson and Lewis

    Holy should retire, he's proved he's a truly great champ a long time ago.
    The fact that at 44 he can still go 12rds without looking bad with one of the top HWs today just shows what a great fighter he is. He was game in that fight, won three rds and was never in trouble, and that in his opponents backyard. And Ibragimov boxed very awkward, that was the smart thing to do for him, who knows how the fight had ended if Iggy had dared to take some risks and mix it up some more?

    Jesus christ you are a moron. You are one of the biggest problems in boxing today, idiots supporting people like Holyfield who continue getting title shots.

    Seriously Holyfield sucked and Sultan couldn't even put him away.
