Round by Round Coverage: Holyfield vs. Ibragimov

So that was it. Big dissapointment. Holy showed his heart like always, but there is just no way he can ever regain a belt again unless some other bums gets it. The current line-up of heavyweight champs are just above his level, some would destroy him too. I agree with Elitesoldier, Sultan should have tried to hurt him or even stop him. Evander is just too stubborn. Sad to say but one day he'll get a brutal reality check..

He shouldn't. He'd own non-euro HW's, IMHO. I actually think he stands a shot against some other HW's. It might've been a clear UD, but Holy still has skills and enough conditioning to fight 2 minutes of every round. And for the record; I'd rather see Sultan retire than Holy. I like boxers... but not at the HW division. I'll take a boxerpuncher anyday of the week. On the plus side, they're showing Hearns-Leanord on the sopcast channel now.

holyfield says he's not retiring.

Holyfield was asked if this was it and he said no. I can't believe it. How stubborn can he be?

so Evander will continue fighting .. then i figured it out I know Holy's plan to become undisputed. he'll simply outlive the other current boxing belt holders.

He shouldn't. He'd own non-euro HW's, IMHO.

hes not retiring??? wtf?

Easy win for Sultan, but my boy Wlad would destroy him. By the way, if Sultan fought Austin again he would easily UD him, he came into that fight over 230 lbs and his speed was gone Sultan has come in at 220 lbs or less in his last two fights and his handspeed looks incredible. WAR SULTAN

I know, that's what I'm saying..

he said hes not retiring!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hes not done !

12th and final round: Holy lands a good right, his best of the night. Ibragimov playing keep away. Holy trying to move in and throw punches. Decent right for Holyfield again. Sultan with a couple of straight lefts. Sultan playing to the crowd.. I'll give it to HOlyfield so it's not a shutout on my card. Obvious UD for Ibragimov. I think what's disheartening is Holyfield didn't look all that bad. He could honestly still take out some HW's probably.

Fight's over I have it 118-110 for Ibragimov...

I have it 119 - 112 lets see what judges have

I have it 10-2 Ibragimov. First and last rounds to Holyfield. Holyfield really needs to retire now.
