    Holyfield plans to fight on...

    Holy is a great man ....


    ---------------
    Holyfield plans to fight on (from Reuters).

    "I will go home, relax, enjoy Christmas and think about my future," he told a news conference. "But I think I fought hard today and it's still my goal to become the undisputed world champion.

    "I was honored to get this opportunity to fight for the title and I tried to do what my corner told me to, which was to get him to move.

    "I was able to get him off balance a couple of times and hit him with some pretty clean shots but it's pretty hard when you can't really step up to him.

    "He has a pretty good defense and I was surprised at the speed of his hands because he is not as slow as people seem to think."

    OF course he does.

    Quitters never win. Winners never quit.

    Of course, Holyfield is kind of like a smoker in that regard, refusing to quit.

        Being in shape is one thing, getting punched in the head by much younger men is another, but truthfully I respect his right to do it.
        I can't say I agree with it, but it's his right as an adult if he passes the medical tests.

            I think it's a good time to retire for him, people know he won this fight, going on could just result in bad things for him, make no mistake, he's way past his best.
