    I don't think so mate. I was just happy that Evander had claimed what was rightfully his...

    With my Bias to the side for 1 moment - you enjoyed a fight that contained 80% holding and 20% headbutting? I actually thought that was one of the most boring big event fights of all time.

    Bias Back - Wish it came 8 yrs earlier though :yep

    Regards to Topic - You want Evan Fields to die in the ring? The Klits will kill him with jabs

    It was the perfect execution of a fight plan. You can see Mike's mental disintegration begin in that fight. The plain confused look on his face in the 4th round when he starts swallowing shots, turns to signs of quitting when he started asking to go and see the Doctor himself.

    Trust me, I wish the fight came 8 years earlier too. It would've been even more one sided... I suppose looking back, Tyson never wanted any piece of him until he thought he was cooked.

    As to the topic, whatever Holyfield does is up to him. The Klitschko's would jab him to death. It's not like they fight any other way and wouldn't do against a 50 year old Holyfield.

    Led by David 'Legacy in my lunchtime' Haye.

    Haye wouldn't be fit to shine Evander's shoes. One's 48 and still wanting to have a crack, the other's just a gobby cat...

    You just can't leave it alone can ya? Haye would barely exist if the Klit's had decent opposition and took care of them like they should.

    Oh Evander. :yep

    There is a bit of a difference between a 42yo Foreman and a 48 yo Holyfield.

    Haye may well very provide that decent opposition Ippy, but fact is, he's a cat and I guess we'll never know...

    It's win-win for me. Klitschko should beat someone with a 40lbs disadvantage....When Haye beats either of them I won't even say a word...

    You would not be able to contain yourself... :lol:

    Actually, I should say, I haven't tipped either way and you know this. I just personally hate Haye running his mouth and continually not backing it up. Even the Brits on the ESB British forum unload on him and are tiring of his ****.

    :huh :lol:

    Lets dream about having a double main event.
    Vit Klit VS Haye.
    Wlad Klit VS Evan Field.

    Ippy would be :| watching both his boys get sparked on the same night. :yep
