I CAN NOT believe the actions of the New York State Athletic Commission in suspending Evander Holyfield's right to box in N.Y. and for the most part, anywhere in the United States if their bogus ruling is upheld.

HELLO...Did they happen to see that a fat and rusty Riddick Bowe is again plying his trade ? Did they notice that Tony "THE DUD" Tubbs is still slinging leather ? Sure I'd like to see Evander retire but it has to be HIS choice unless he fails the medical exam. If Mike Weaver wanted to box again, I doubt if he would be blocked from returning to ring wars. Butterbean fights whenever he feels like it.

Are you going to tell me he's in better shape then Evander ? What makes Holyfield more shot then Tyson? You know it wasn't that long ago that Evander outfought Hassim Rahman. Now Rahman is being touted as a future title challenger after his KO win over Kali Meehan.

Michael Moorer looked pretty pathetic after David Tua starched him in one round a while back. I don't recall a mission to revoke his right to fight. Enough is enough already. A man must do what a man must do. Evander is MAN enough to make his own decisions.

If the N.Y.S.A.C. is going to proceed with their actions, they better suspend a lot of other fighters too. You should not be able to just pick and choose a high profile boxer to make the commission look good !!!
