Savarese is gonna beat Holyfield

That would be nice to see him win & Holy laid to rest. But with our luck, Holy will let the haymakers fly & Lou will get nailed.

Maybe not. When is that fight? This weekend? PPV? Thats a joke.:!:

 

Sure he would.

 

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..

Lou is a good solid pro , but has been a bit of a letdown during his whole career..

very likeable though.....

 

I dont think so Holyfield still got some fight in him

 

I think it's going to be a Holyfield win, and quite possibly by stoppage.

You can't argue with the power of the shot that put Savarese's last opponent down, but I can't see Holyfield standing there with his gloves not up and letting Lou wind up a shot like that.

And on the flip side, Lou's defence and workrate looked real poor.

 

Depends what kind of shape savarese is in. I have not seen anything on his condition. He didn't look to good last time i saw him.

 

He's said he is around 241-243 at the moment, which is definitely good shape.

But even in his prime, I had issues with his defence. Add to that the simple fact he's 41 now, and can't fight at a busy pace anymore...I would definitely be surprised if Lou won this one. I think it's almost as much of a set-up for Holyfield as Maddalone, in terms of a guy who's style should help Holy look good.

 

I saw a prime Savarese get dropped by an ancient Mark Young years ago..

He did ok for a limited heavyweight (boxing George and Grant) but on massive occasions let himself down.

 

I was at that fight BigCat- Lou won that fight via decision, it was in upstate NY. The first time he ever went down in his career- amatuer or pro was against Izon. I have been friends with Lou since our teenage years and been to most of his fights- will be going to El Paso for this one.
Anyway, with that said- Lou is really in tremendous shape for this fight and I expect a war. I trained with him for several months last year hitting the weights- the guy is a dedicated worker. Was benching close to 400lbs- best shape he can be in at his age- it will be apparent when he gets in the ring. As it will be for Evander as well. Both guys are coming to brawl.
Definitely the key will be for Lou to survive the early couple of rounds vs Evander and take him deep. Opportunity will be there for Lou to land some bombs when Holyfield slows down. It's going to be a slugfest for sure while it lasts.

 

Holyfield gonna win big. Give em' HELL Holyfield!!! :bbb :bbb :bbb

 

This has to be one of the worst PPV I have ever seen. Talk about irrelavent to anyting, neither are even top HW's anymore.

It could end up being like the Holyfield vs Oqueerdo fight. Slow, alot of holding and little action.

 

I still don't understand hwy Holyfield would take this fight?!

Beating Savarese won't get Holyfield any closer to a title shot.
