      I don't think so...Holyfield will probably keep fighting, he needs the money.

          Holyfield looked bad and Ibragimov didn't look much better.

          He did have a nice 12th round from what I remember but aside from that he looked like an old fighter who couldn't pull the trigger even when he saw the openings.

          It didn't seem like Holyfield was fully motivated for that fight. He got his title shot but did nothing with it.

              I don't agree....he's an old man and he hasn't done anything since the Ibragimov loss last September.

              He should retire...but he won't

              I'm surprised he didn't call out Hypejob Haye....I think he would have a good chance against that glass chinned fraud.

                    No, he was highly motivated. He just couldn't do any better because he's old and Sultan is a good defensive fighter.

                    Is Holyfield one of your favorites, like he is to many other Americans?

                      How is Sultan a good defensive fighter when Briggs and Holyfield didn't throw **** against him?
