Hope Holyfield doesn't die. What an idiot! Too many punches to the head have ruined him. I remember when he used to be articulate and now you can barely understand him b/c his speech is so slurred. Holyfield hasn't had any power in his punches in over a decade.

i think i saw the russian guy on tv fighting a year or so ago. not much of a boxer, but he's huge and can take a beating. match will probably be boring.

It is a joke that Holyfield can even get a boxing license anymore. He was a legit great fighter in his day, its a shame hes turned into what he is now.

Did you know that Dolph Lundgren is/was an actual fighter? Not sure if he's a pro, but here he fights Oleg Taktarov. For those who don't know, he was a popular fighter from the early UFC days when there were few rules. HERE

That Russian fighter isn't very good, but Holyfield is old. The Russian guy won't fight anyone who's really good.

Valuev is huge and slow.
Holyfield would have killed him 10years ago... but Holyfield is old as well.

Then again, Holyfield is more aerodynamic now, due to the smaller ear.

I think Holyfield will win.

Holyfield is going to get killed. A good big man always beats a good little man as the saying goes. Neither of them are actually good... but the size part holds true. Holyfield is truly an idiot.

Tyson was and is tiny compared to most of the competition that he decimated.

size only matters to a certain degree in the world of boxing.
