    does Holy still want to unify the division?

    or have those talks died down?
    He wouldn't fight either of the Klits.

      According to reports today, Valuev is saying he doesn't want to fight Holyfield.

      He says he and King want a fight with Golota, but Sauerland wants Holyfield.

      Valuev Team statement!

      Sunday, November 2 2008

      By Alexey Potapov

      Boris Dimitrov, Nikolai Valuev's manager has informed *********.com of new details involving Valuev's upcoming fight in December: "Nikolai, I and Don King, as before, we oppose a Valuev-Holyfield fight. This is the initiative of Sauerland Event. They wish to make this fight because of money. I wish to find a worthy contender for the boxer. I can inform you that Nikolai will fight on December 20th this year in the Swiss city Zürich. As far as I know, there are restrictions on age for professional boxers in Switzerland. The fight will not be in Germany. Don King and I want a fight with Andrew Golota. Yes, on November 7th Golota will box against Ray Austin, but Don King considers that in one and a half months he can be ready to fight with Valuev. If Golota refuses, we will agree on a fight against Holyfield."

        Damn so Kali Meehan is jus gettin dogged righ now. I feel for the guy man, he get's put below a ATG and HOF jus cuz there's more money to be made. Sucks for Meehan, dude is no. 1 fighter for WBA and I think he has an alright chance against big ugly Valuev. A better chance then what Holyfield has, don't know if Holyfield is doin this cuz he needs to make those baby mama payments.

          Golota went life and death with Mollo and I think Holyfield can beat Mollo. At least Holyfield never quit in his fights like Golota did with Michael Grant and Mike Tyson. King wants Golota because Holyfield is not a King fighter. Don makes more money with Golota involved.

            ... and Sauerland makes more money with Holyfield.

            It will be interesting to see who gets his way.
