Re: Holyfields chances?
We all seem to agree that Holyfield should hand up the gloves. BUT he IS fighting Valuev so I will give my opinion about the fight, not Holyfield's ongoing career.
I think of all the champions out there, Valuev is the best fight for Holyfield, mainly because Holy knows how to get inside and is extremely cagey even at 46. Second reason is Valuev is not a big puncher. Holy might actually have an advantage here. Valuev struggled in almost all of his championship fights, most could have gone either way. Evander knows what he needs to do to beat Valuev. Whether or not he can do it is another question. I actually thing it will be a close fight and give Evander a decent chance of pulling it off.
On the other hand Holyfield hasnt fought in over a year, and it is a difficult feat fore any fighter to come back and beat the "champion." I am behind Holyfield 100% for this one and I hope he does make history. I cant think of any other heavyweight more worthy of being a five time champion.
