But with the current crop I think he could win a piece of the pie. But to unify the titles, no way, he has the heart, determination and conditioning to continue on though, at his age his reflexes are not what they used to be and thats his downfall as most already know. I don't think we'll ever see a unified champ again, just to many sanctioning bodies and promoters to satisfy. When you look at the champs out there ( Oleg Maskaev, Nicolay Valuev, Wladimir Klitschko, Shannon Briggs ) you have to give him a chance agains't at least one or two of these fighters. I just hope he stays away from both the Klitschko's if Vitali comes back and wins a title.
I'm not Holyfield's biggest fan but I respect what he has accomplished and as a fan of boxing I don't wish to see Great fighters or ANY fighters for that matter end up hurt or disabled.

I just don't want Don King to milk all the cash out of Holyfield and leave him on the street as a shell of a man. And I have been yelling it from the top of my lungs the moment Holyfield came back

HOLYFIELD WILL BE USED TO LEGITIMIZE NICOLAY VALUEV'S RECORD

That plain fact is undeniable....Valuev has fought nothing but bums as of late and he needs a tested heavyweight to establish himself as better than the rest.

Have you wondered why Holyfield fought Fres Oquendo? Fres can't punch! Fres ain't big! And when he's not motivated he's worse than pretty much anyone out there.

I have my doubts about Nicolay's power, in fact I KNOW he doesn't have that much because it took him 11 rounds to get a ring rusted Monte Barrett out! However, the fact he is 7'0 tall 325 pounds and has used rabbit punching to KO opponents worries me.

Don King wants money and he wants his fighters to be recognized as the best even if they really haven't proven it...and this guy is going to give Evander Holyfield fights That is a MAJOR worry
