    This is an ESPN-quality fight. I'm not hating, I'm just saying I wouldn't be thrilled for this to be on an HBO card even though there's a title on the line. It'll be fun though.

              ah man!! I AM ELATED FOR MY BOY HOLYFIELD. HE IS A TRUE FIGHTER, HE REALLY LOVES THIS GAME AND I BELIEVE THAT HE IS GOING TO WIN HIS FOURTH HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE, OR IS IT THE FIFTH? NOT SURE HE GOT SO MANY. ANYHOW, I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW U, SUPPPOSEDLY BOXING FANS AREN'T EXCITED ABOUT THIS AFFAIR. HOLIFIELD IS WHAT, 42, 43? AND STILL LOOKS DANGEROUS IN THAT RING. NOT LIKE VINTAGE REAL DEAL BUT LIKE A SERIOUS THREAT. THAT IS PAPERVIEW MATERIAL TO ME, BUT HEY, IM ACTUALLY A BOXER, SO, WHAT DO I KNOW?

                  I can't imagine this fight would be on anything other than PPV but good for ESPN if they do put in on regular cable.

                    I'm definatly looking forward to this myself.. holy is riding on 4 straight wins so he probly deserves the title shot more than ibragy did after the Ray Austin fight. I'm hoping Holy gets it done, i think if he is gonna win a title Ibrag. might be the guy for him to do it against. Holy will be much more active than briggs was, and the two are pretty damn even in size. Ibrag's southpaw stance could pose problems, but i think Holy may be able to at least hold his own in the speed department. Its still a long shot, but holy's got a pretty decent shot imo.

                      If this fight is going on ESPN it will probably be one of the most watched fights in recent years. It would be nice if they got one or two good young fighters on theundercard to get them some exposure but that would be to expensive.
