    Default Old Timers Club Heavyweight Fights

    This all started with Oliver McCall and his comeback. He has been reaching out to other old guys that he knows. He started with Holyfield and it has spread.
    Right now it looks like Shannon Briggs might get involved.

    Wish Lennox at 38 years young had whipped himself into shape one last time so we could see him whip Vitali decisively and put the wonder and doubt to rest.

    A seniors boxing club of Boxers fighting 3 rounds for charity would be good. Top league to include Wlad, Vitali, Lennox, Tyson, Holyfield and Big George. The second division would be Haye, Briggs, Bruno and McCall.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    They won't fight for charity. This has been in motion for some time now and these guys are thinking that they can all fight each other and make some money.

    Exhibitions and all fine, if they are really coming to fight then itd likely be sad, even if they try to pair up guys who are more likely to have declined to similar levels. When two people are 50 something and haven't boxed meaningfully in years, there is no real way of knowing if one of them can't take any kind of further punishment and the other can still dish some out, etc. It's not like they can get proper camps in with legit sparring partners to find out.

    lets get ike in on the action
    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    Titofan:

    The fact is GGG has fought at 160 for his entire career. Post #87, 5th August 2022

    No PPV, regular television so we can watch the sponsors of Metamucil, AARP and Just4Men commercials.

    Promoted by Jitterbug!!! The phone with those really REALLY BIG AZZ numbers on the key pad.


    McCall has fallen...and he can't get up.


    And for ring entrance Don Cornelius and the OOOOlllllldddddd Traiinnn!!!
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!
