    Default Is Holyfield serious????

    Does he really think he stands a chance against either of the klit bros.? It's sad that a warrior like that has thrown his pride aside just because he is way over his head in debt. He is defiantly acting like a desperate man.

    He has 11 kids. They all have to reach the age before he 18 before he has to stop paying for them. Desperate indeed. I'm sure he'd take one of the klits handing him a check and a belt over getting punched in the head, but this is boxing.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    No one has stopped Holyfield since Toney. Holyfield is past the stage where we think he will win. If he loses it is expected, if he wins he becomes a legend.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    It might be a carnival of the obscene. But I'll tell you what, he wouldn't go out in a passive fetal position curled up on the canvas like Thompson or a heavyweight imposter ala Mormeck.

    The klitschko's won't fight him, they said years ago: that ''We have far too much respect for evander to further damage his health\reputation....we are boxers not barbarians'' That was like 8 years ago or something, ibragimov and byrd completely dominated him! Holy is pretty much a journeyman nowadays its quite sad what has happened to him. In fact he's getting beat by journeyman!

    Any idiot suggesting there is some sort of honour in the holyfield debacle wants shooting! The guy is just desperate and lost and has not been a serious threat to the division for a decade or more! 'Going out on your shield etc' lol We don't need a 50 yr old holyfield getting battered by journeyman in the division thankyou very much, have some respect. Evander needs someone to sit him down and tell him a few home truths....

    If they refuse to fight him out of respect then fair play to them but there's an element of Cool Hand Luke refusing to stay down (or stupidity) that I like about Holyfield.

    Maybe he needs to be set on his ass to realise it's time to find another way to make money.

    Whatever else he is, Holyfield is broke. Like ray Arcel said, "Hard times make monkeys eat red peppers."

    Holyfield fights on, is he past his sell by date yes but this is boxing , so the last person to no is the
    fighter himself. There is a lot of money, out there Holyfield needs and wants it, what do you do stop
    him fighting, because people no what's best for him.!
    He's like a old Bulldog , he will die trying rather than quite.

    He's already a legend. He doesn't need to be in a farce of a fight against people he would have murdered in his pomp. The Klits both have tremendous amounts of respect for him though and I think it's highly unlikely they would fight him now.
