Thread: Holyfield vs Valuev

So this fight happens saturday night Holyfield is 12inch shorter than Valuev who stands 7ft 2inch and will give away over 100lbs in weight to Valuev but at 46 can Holyfield win?.

Holyfield doesnt have much of a shot IMO. It would be fun to see him pull out a shock. But I really dont see it.

It will be a big ask from Holyfield like i say 12 inch in height and over 100lbs in weight and at the age of 46 but if he did do it Holyfield would want a crack at the Klitschko's and that wouldnt be good at all.

if Evander pulls off a miricle , my main concerns are as follows. Ruiz gets a shot and beats Holyfield OMG the worest HW champ of all time.
But more to the point if Evander won , and fought either of the brothers GRIM , then not only could he get hurt , Vitali could kill him or seriously hurt him.

Valuev - ud 12

Valuev should win on points but I voted Holyfield in the poll cuz I let my heart rule my head . It would be the highlight of teh year if Evander was to regain the title for a record 5th time. I really hope he wins but I can see him landing a lucky punch and I struggle to see him outworking Valuev to win on points

..can holyfield even still lift his arms high enough to reach valuev's chin ?? If holyfield can sustain his now usual 18 and a half seconds of action per round then maybe this fight will be worth missing america's most wanted i guess. It's also always possible that valuev lifts his leg too high getting over the ropes and hits himself in the jaw and help holyfield out a little

Valuev by stoppage mid to late rounds.

Where the hell can I see this fight anyway? Nothing on Sky, Setanta, Eurosport etc

i hope its a ko for Valuev and send Evanders ass into retirement.

In a twisted way it may be what it will take for the message to register.I don't wish it but he is sadly becoming permanent 'name' resume padding

Valuev by stoppage in the mid to late rounds.

I can see Valuev beating Holyfield almost as badly as Lewis beat Holyfield in their first fight.

Anybody know any sites Brit fans can watch this live?

Valuev by stoppage late...I fear they are going to let the fight go on a little too long and although Valuev doesn't have great KO power, Evander doesn't need to get hit anymore.


The reason Foreman could win at his old age is because he took a long layoff and he really didn't look old at all...at least not old enough to lose his license

I voted for Holyfield. Though I don't think he will win I can not bring myself to go against him. After all my bitching about it being PPV I still will probably buy it tommorow.

Can't find it on any uk chan's? thought setanta had it? anyone know if they are showing it on uk tv or not?
