    he was 231 lbs and out of shape for austin. plus austin isnt all that bad,,,wlad just made him look bad as he has 40+ other guys. austin drew with larry donald who destroyed holyfield. sultan as vulnerable as he is,,is a bad style matchup for holyfield.get ready to cry tomorrow night its going to be ugly for holyfield and Im not going to watch it. it was sad enough for me watching him get pummeled by toney and donald

      This was the best move for Holyfield. If he wants to capture the title one mroe time...taking on a small HW like Sultan is the only way. I think he is going to take a hell of alot of punishment in this bout. And he wont be dishing out much. Ibragimov is going to work him and knock him out on his feet late.

          Thats his lightest since 5/20/95 when he beat Ray Mercer weighing 209.

              Damn. Holyfield has not been 211 since 1996. He has always been in great shape but man for an older guy to control his weight and get down to what he was when he was one of the top heavyweights is impressive. Sultan is not chiseled at all but as you can tell from his pictures, his legs are like trucks. That is where his power comes from.

                i don't think holyfield was on steroids early in his career, i saw the dokes fight today and he didn't look like he was on steroids then but his body did look more pumped up against tyson but i am no expert on steroids so until he has been proven guilt i wont judge him. i have seen some evidence in a ring mag linking him to the purchase of steroids though.

                  He did not "control" his weight, it's just when you are 45 you start losing muscle more rapidly and are generally lighter(if, ofcourse you do ot bloat with fat as it happens to the majority of middle aged men) Thus Holyfield is at such a low weight.

                      Hold on.

                      Somebody's name is on a client list for a steroids distribution ring. AND YOU DON'T THINK HE DID STEROIDS??

                      Did Barry Bonds do steroids?
