    A good lesson if ever there was one. Other, younger, heavyweight fighters should take note of these words and apply them to their lifestyle.

    Evander looks good.

    Interesting that he says the first Qawi fight was the toughest of his career.I always thought the first Bowe fight was.

    Still don't know what fight he has next week.

    LOL Did anyone notice she received a question fro ma ''guy called Addie''.Wonder if it's our Addie?

    I heard that his fight was canceled?...And yeah, in his book, and in other interviews, Holyfield has commented that Bowe gave him the toughest fight. Actually come to think of it, he just said that Bowe hit him the hardest out of anybody he has ever faced, but maybe that doesn't necessarily mean he gave him the hardest fight?

    Having read the book, there is nothing he hates more than to be told to stop to save himself.

    I think he will still be fighting in five years time.

    Certainly contradicts what I always here in the 24/7 series about how fighters' bodies go stale.

    By all accounts, Holyfield should have a belt right now, which is pretty amazing, considering his age and the amount of punishment he's taken. They don't make many fighters like him any more. He's a throwback to boxing's golden age.

    I like her, she treated him so well. It was disgusting watching the Faux News interviewer disrespect Evander, especially when that guy wouldn't have the balls to say do any of that to Evander's face.

    This whole deal with the environment, I think its just a way to bring down energy costs on his ridiculous mansion which he can no longer afford.
