    Holyfield is a decade past it and should not be allowed to fight anymore for his own sake. And he's fighting a "circus freak" (couldn't describe it any better ICE). What is there to look forward to? This fight is a joke and I've completely ignored it's existence.

    Holyfield has a shot just because he is fighting the weakest link.....no fucking way he should be allowed to fight either Klitschko.

    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.

    Yeah it was when Evander was 34 coming off a ko defeat to a fat Bowe. He was facing Mike who at the time was considered invincible. Nobody gave him a shot. This time he is only up against valuev whos some unschooled boxer who got owned by Chagaev

    All im saying is weve seen bigger shocks.

    I thinkValuev might just be poor enough to lose this fight. That being said i agree with the others it would be a bad thing as he could get hurt against the brothers.

    I think Valuev will eke out a dull points win.

I sure hope he could pull an upset but I do highly doubt it. I hope he does not get hurt and retire if he losses.
    Big George also still had that ridiculous power that Evander has never really had. Don't get me wrong he can punch but has always been more of an accumulative puncher than a one punch knockout puncher. George on the other hand did and that was his biggest advantage IMO.

    By continuing to fight for money, Holyfield is jeopardizing his well-earned Social Security checks.
