    Belfort did what Tyson, Mercer, Lewis, Foreman and Cooper failed to do

    He stopped Evander Holyfield. And did it in one round. Belfort has a special place in boxing history.

    Was Holyfield 58 years old when Tyson, Mercer, Lewis, Foreman and Cooper failed to stop him?

    Boxing does not need a seniors tour in any way.

    Golf? O.k.
    Baseball? O.k.
    Syncronized swimming? Whatever

    An aged fighter is like few aged athletes out there.

    These men have paid their dues and carry with them the injuries of the sport.

    It really sickened me to watch Holyfield, who was now soo slow, getting his ass handed to him by a man who has little skill with his hands.

    These bouts needs to stop happening.....................Rockin'

      He beat a 58 year old, formerly great, man.

      Belfort can clean the toilets at the H.O.F but that is his only way in there unless he pays at the door.

      His victory means nothing to the sport, except that it shows that there should be an age limit if you want to fight pro.

        There is truth in this. Sure, Holyfield is in his 50's, but Belfort is almost 50 and not a boxer. It was an embarrassing loss for him. Nash out.

          - -Field needed the $$$, it's that simple. Never mind the guy that beat him was 44 yrs old with less than one round completed in the books

            Stop making excuses. Whether Belfort fought Holyfield in 2021 or 1991, he just had Holyfield's number. Sometimes it happens.

              That number wouldn't happen to be 58? Do you work for the promoter of Belfort or something? ................Rockin'

                Too many people acting like Belfort is young! He's not far from 50 himself, and he's a none boxer. Embarrassing loss for Evan Fields. Nash out

                  Belfort would probably beat Wilder, AJ, Fury, Usyk or any heavy. Anyone who can stop Holyfield in 1 round could certainly possibly beat those 4. This win is equivalent to Louis rematch win over Schmeling. Or Tyson over Spinks.

                    You must be joking. Possibly he beats Wilder, not AJ and Fury though, either would funk him up. Usyk I haven't seen fight..............Rockin'
