    Holyfield, with the right training could get himself into shape and become a force in the heavyweight division.

    Remember this?

    With the right training and team, Holyfield could once again be the Holyfield we all knew and loved. In fact, I saw a video of him training and it looked like 1991 all over again. Long live Evander.

    I'm assuming this is levity?? Holyfield to me didn't look that great. Tyson looks far better, but who knows.

    He could go on to unify the title.

    Holyfield’s last hurrah was really against Valuev at 46.He should have won his fifth title as a heavyweight.He got robbed.

    He lost easily to a very average Larry Donald and that was 16 years ago.

    I hope you're trolling and saying this because some know nothings are saying that Tyson can come back and be a force because he looked "good" in training. Of course, neither one should fight again.

    For those with short memories, Holyfield's refusal to retire later in his career, was seen as being some sort of sick car crash in slow motion!
