Sorry bro, I can't understand, Holyfield is on the downside of his career, yes he was an all time great and books will still mention him as one of the best 90's boxer for sure.

but let faces the truth, he's faaaar past his prime and he could get seriously hurt in this game (remember in which shape is Georges page nowadays ?) this is insane...I mean he needs no more money but he's just running to catch up his ego..

Holyfield was a great great warrior, but c'mon he's not at this best he's far from being at the kind of shape he was 10years ago far far...

Beating Jeremy bates ? my god, this guy was a journeyman anyway I agree, he needed this kind of bout badly

Oquendo is far more serious, but beatable due to his long layoff...but after that ? I can understand that Holy has the tool to survive to any contender...but please I don't wanna see him hurt.

True lovers of Holyfield want his retirement from the ring.
You mean to tell me you cant look at Evanders physical condition now and 15 yrs ago and can see a difference it's quite obvious at 44 he still eats right dedicates himself to conditioning and is chiseled like stone..

All my point was that if he is going to press forward with his goals, he is doing everything physically possible to put himself in the best position to do so...

And sorry I am a Huge fan of Evander, if he wants to compete and is capable of doing so then so be it, your not a doctor if he is fit to carry on with out any serious reprecussions then let the man do what he does best and chase his dream...
