| Evander Holyfield Targets The Povetkin-Chagaev Winner
|
|
By Ruslan Chikov Four-time heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield, 48-years-old, is trying to secure the winner of Saturday's fight between Alexander Povetkin and Ruslan Chagaev, who battle for the WBA's "regular" heavyweight title in Germany. Holyfield told German reporter Georg Ebro that he recently held a meeting in Germany with Povetkin's promoter Kalle Sauerland to discuss the possibility of facing Povetkin, if he wins the fight. "I want the winner of the world championship fight between Alexander Povetkin and Ruslan Chagaev. The fight between Chagaev and Povetkin is very interesting. Teddy Atlas is a very good trainer. Povetkin is the favorite for me. He was an Olympic champion and world amateur champion, and he's undefeated. I love boxing and I feel fit. My dream is to become world champion again," Holyfield said.

He's probably thinking this will get him a fight with one of the klitschkos. |

Then we don't have to talk about it. How tough can it be to get your title shot Evander. You've been talking about it for 4 years, you quit against Tank Williams. You beat up Neilson who hadn't fought in what, 12 years. You have no probably drawing the media to you. Demand to anyone with a record... |

Can't we get all the world commishes not to let Holy fight any more before he's almost like Benitez...too bad he has 20 illegitmate kids and a house 1/2 Atlanta can live in, his need for $$ is not a reason to keep giving him approval to fight...he worse than washed-up. |
