holyfield looked far from shot in the sultan fight

[larryx]

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.

ok wlad now you confuse me ..he can beat haye but none of the overwieght heavys???

[TheGreatA]

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?

Holyfield should be everyone's favorite.

I didn't see any of the old fire that he used to have, Holyfield looked like a washed up boxer fighting for money, content on going the distance.

I don't know if he needs the money but that's what it seemed like to me.

[MANGLER]

Much love for Holy. He was a warrior but his time has long passed. Dude's gonna end up hurt bad if he don't give it up.

[wolfgang]

I agree everyone should love Holyfield most heart of any heavyweight ever besides Ali, Tunny and vlad you always over hype white eurpeon fighters, sultan a good defense fighter lol he got a draw with ray austin, james toney even managed to tko holyfield.

It's hard to watch him fight now. He is far past it, and already punch drunk. I dont want him to get hurt any worse. And Im a huge fan of his.

[Steak]

he won the first round and last round, and thats it. other than landing maybe three flush right hands, he looked like garbage, and Ibragimov looked like crap too.

It amazes me he still is fighting today, and I wish hed have retired long ago. the guy has been shot for a long time, and the fact that hes in his later 40s still getting title shots after such a hard career...I just dont get it.

He needs to retire. no more fights. please take a rest after such a punishing career

118-110,117-111 twice were incorrect scores..he could still pull the trigger and did the most damage in that fight..holyfield may never win another title but he can beat 90 percent of todays heavys at 46.. in that fight he showed he wasnt shot at all..good showing for the real deal todays heavys can learn alot from him,he comes in great shape(actually has a 6 pack)he has heart(unlike hassim rahman) he is the real deal

in that fight Holyfield showed he would not let his hands go through fear of being countered by the younger quicker man

Holyfield reflexes and speed went years ago IMO
